New Zealand international visitor levy increasing to $100 NZD from $35 NZD!!! How much???

"New Zealand requires visitors from visa waiver countries to apply for an Electronic Travel Authority (ETA) prior to travel, as is the case with many countries around the world. Not only does applying for the ETA incur a fee, but the country also charges an International Visitor Conservation and Tourism Levy (IVL), which is intended “to ensure visitors contribute to public services and high-quality experiences while visiting New Zealand.”

That's R1111.00 per player every time the Mighty Boks fly over to play. Ripoff!! :mad: :mad:

We have had enough of the cheap-ass backpackers (German and Nordic youth) flooding the country. Let's scare them off and reserve our efforts for the big spenders to whom $100 is a small tip

I'm quite happy for a certain segment of those German and Nordic backpackers to keep on coming. So to speak.

German tourists are notoriously tight-fisted everywhere.

NZ the fourth cheapest destination in the world, Australia the sixth. Seems legit
