Illustration for Customs and Excise Act 2018

There is a law about stopping people from smuggling drugs outside New Zealand. You need to know that this law is part of the Customs and Excise Act 2018. A part of this law, called section 267A, was repealed on 21 May 2022.

This repeal happened because of a change made by the Maritime Powers Act 2022, which you can read more about on the New Zealand legislation website. The change was made to update the laws about stopping drug smuggling. This means that section 267A is no longer a part of the Customs and Excise Act 2018.
