New Zealand visa for Palestinian citizens

While New Zealand passport holders will need to secure a visa for entry into Palestine, the process is a crucial step towards experiencing the rich history of the region. For a typical tourist visa, expect to allow for a stay of up to 30 days, with application fees generally around $50 USD. Navigating entry can sometimes involve additional security screenings at border crossings, a reality for many travelers to the area, so arriving with all necessary documentation is paramount. Consider flying into Tel Aviv (Ben Gurion Airport) as most international flights arrive there, and then making overland arrangements into Palestinian territories, keeping in mind the currency difference as the Israeli Shekel is widely used.
