→ Vanuatu visa for New Zealand citizens

As a New Zealand passport holder, you'll enjoy visa-free entry to Vanuatu, allowing for a generous stay of up to 120 days to explore its stunning islands. This straightforward process, with no visa cost for tourist purposes, makes planning your South Pacific adventure simple. Remember that Vanuatu operates on Vanuatu Time (VUT), which is 11 hours ahead of New Zealand, so be prepared for a jump in time upon arrival. While English is widely spoken, learning a few basic Bislama phrases will greatly enhance your interactions with the friendly locals, especially during the popular dry season from May to October.
