Yehootu Posted November 5, 2023 #1 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Need some advice, or where to get some. I got the app and started to apply for my wife's and my visas. I scanned my US passport bar and the chip inside it. It loaded and gave me issued.. I looked at the visa and it stated I was allowed to "travel to New Zealand for the purpose of fulfilling your air crew role". Only problem is I'll be arriving by ship. I attempted to find the site for the 'alternate NZeTA but couldn't get the right Visa. Any ideas? My wife's went through with no problems..

NZeTA I would suggest you post this on the Ports of Call - Australia & New Zealand board as most who post on this board are Australians and New Zealanders - we don't need to obtain NZ visas or NZeTAs.

buchhalm Posted November 7, 2023 #3 Share Posted November 7, 2023 How would that even end up being a "air crew" visa? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps your passport needs to be updated? This link may help - Changing Status of NZeTA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This link may help - Changing Status of NZeTA Thanks for the ideas. DON'T make the mistake that I did and try the live chat function. It's from a 3rd party vendor who is contracted to "help" with your application. 3hrs of my life wasted I won't get back. I went back to the official site, the 3rd party sent out an email to finish my application, and was able to apply there without scanning my passport. I now have the correct Visa. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
