"Returning a recalled passport: what you must do"

Illustration for Intelligence and Security Act 2017

When a passport is recalled, you need to return it. The law about returning a recalled passport is in section 11 of the Passports Act 1992. You can find more information about this law on the New Zealand legislation website.

The law says that section 11 now also applies to sections 8 to 10 and section 27GA. This means that if any of these sections apply to you, you must return your passport if it is recalled. You should check the law to see how it applies to your situation.
