Please note that from 1st September 2007, the $50 Over Allowance no longer applies to Alcohol and any bottles of spirits or liqueurs over 1125ml will be charged at full duty by New Zealand Customs. Passengers can only bring in a maximum of 3 bottles of spirits (regardless of size).

For example, three bottles containing 500ml of spirits are also counted as the full allowance although they only add up to 1.5 litres. Also, for example if you bring in 5 x 200ml bottles into New Zealand, you will be charged Duty on 2 of these bottles as the first 3 bottles make up your full New Zealand allowance (even though they are under 1125ml each).
