Ministry of Health update

21 JUNE 2021

 

Everyone in New Zealand aged 16 and over is eligible for free COVID-19 vaccination, regardless of visa or citizenship status. Any information we collect will not be used for immigration purposes.

We’ve secured enough Pfizer vaccine (Comirnaty) for everyone in New Zealand aged 16 and over to get the two doses they need against COVID-19. We’re also buying vaccines for those in the Cook Islands, Niue, Tokelau, Sāmoa, Tonga, and Tuvalu.

When you can get a vaccine depends on your age and situation. Different regions will also start at different times.

Once it’s your turn, you can be vaccinated at any time – there’s no cutoff.

You can use the Unite against COVID-19 tool to find out what group you're probably in and when you can get a vaccine.
