Don’t forget to buy New Zealand dollars before you leave for New Zealand
When preparing for your trip to New Zealand, it is important to find out about local customs and practices, but especially about the local currency. In many cases you will be able to pay with your credit cards, but in others you will need to have cash in New Zealand dollars (NZD) which is the local currency of the country. Before exchanging eur nzd, be sure to check the rates in advance to get the best offer. As a first step, check the recommended daily budget to ensure you have enough travel money in cash before your departure.
