And as with the question earlier, they can wear the "farm shoes" is Sydney one day, but don't get to declare them till the next. Yes, I guess it seems a touch strange about the shoes not being checked until the next day but thems the rules. Same as the rule about cruises that originate and return to Australia but overnight in a foreign port are subject to face to passport screening, no one seems to know why, but its the rule. 🤔🤔 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Specific mention was made to shoes worn in NZ, especially if one has visited a farm or other such excursion. It was said that travelers need to declare their activity and the shoes worn could be inspected and even steam cleaned, if needed. How is this handled for cruise passengers? We leave in a couple of weeks for a NZ cruise from SYD and this is the first I’ve heard about this, so looking for more info. We disembarked this morning from the Coral Princess after a cruise to NZ. While on board, we were asked to check our shoes for cleanliness if we had been to a farm, but there was no mention at disembarkation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you ticked yes, you would be asked about it by a BF officer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
