HM 7: Requirements
or “Rules for becoming and staying a Portfolio Investment Entity (PIE)”
You could also call this:

“When you're considered a New Zealand resident for tax purposes”

You need to live in New Zealand for this rule to apply to you. This means two things:

  1. You must be a resident of New Zealand.

  2. If there’s an agreement between New Zealand and another country about taxes, it can’t say that you’re not a resident of New Zealand.

There’s another rule called Section HM 19B(2) that can change how this rule works. If you want to know more about that, you should look it up.
