Buy New Zealand Dollars (NZD) before travelling to New Zealand
As you prepare for your trip to New Zealand, it’s essential to learn about local customs and, most importantly, the local currency. In many situations, you’ll be able to pay by credit card, but in others, you’ll need cash in New Zealand Dollars (NZD), the country’s official currency. Before exchanging SEK to NZD, be sure to check the rates in advance to get the best deal. As a first step, it’s helpful to review the recommended daily budget to ensure you bring enough travel money in cash before departure.
Practical tips for planning your budget
Tipping isn’t mandatory in New Zealand, but it’s common to leave at least 10% of the bill if you wish to show appreciation. Plan for an average daily budget of 143 NZD to cover accommodation in a mid-range hotel, two restaurant meals, and public transport. If you’re hoping to experience New Zealand’s culinary delights, expect to pay around 22 NZD per meal at a restaurant.
