Passenger Arrival Card

As you probably know, you will have to fill out a form while in your way to New Zealand. The form is called "Passenger Arrival Card" and they give it to you in the airplane. However, you can take a look at it in advance as it is also available in the New Zealand's Customs website1.

You can find the English version here2.

The good thing about it is that the form is also available in many different languages3.  However, I am quite sure that the air company won't have all the languages available (although I think they will have an English and a Spanish version). In any case, if you have trouble with English it's always nice to take a look at the form in your native language, so you won't have any problems in filling it out.

Here are the Portuguese4 and the Spanish5 versions.

Hope you find this helpful! See you!!

## Update - 1##

I have just noticed that the Zip Code field does not have enough blanks for the Brazilian standard. It only has 7 blanks whereas Brazil's Zip Code have 8 numbers... I'll figure out what to do by asking a flight attendant when he or she give me the form. And I will let you know, of course! =)
