We are now in Alert Level 1
Controls at the borders remain for those entering New Zealand, including health screening and testing for all arrivals, and mandatory 14-day managed quarantine or isolation.

Remember to remain vigilant and being aware of physical distancing when out and about amongst strangers is a good habit to keep.
