Good to know for Kiwi shoppers

GST on overseas orders

GST of 15% applies to imports. On items up to NZ$1,000 the overseas seller may charge it at checkout; Customs doesn't collect duty or GST at the border below that.

Same-day orders add up

Several orders from the same supplier arriving on the same day can be treated as one shipment and go over NZ$1,000.

Border levy

Low-value air imports carry a NZ$2.54 levy (incl. GST) per declaration, usually passed on by the courier.

Prices in USD

US shops charge in US dollars. Your bank converts to NZD and may add a foreign transaction fee.

In the shop's own words
