To qualify as a domestic student, and so be entitled to the Government tuition subsidy, you must be a citizen of New Zealand (including students from the Cook Islands, Tokelau, or Niue who have New Zealand citizenship) or a permanent resident of New Zealand or a citizen or permanent resident of Australia residing in New Zealand.

You must provide evidence of citizenship or permanent residency and to do so you must produce one of the following:

• Birth certificate with place of birth stated as New Zealand, Cook Islands, Tokelau, or Niue.
• New Zealand passport.
• A statement of Whakapapa, including date of birth, countersigned by a kaumatua.
• Certificate of citizenship or letter of confirmation.
• Overseas passport with residency stamp.

Australian learners who are living in New Zealand must supply one of the following documents:

• Birth certificate
• Australian passport, or
• current Returning Resident’s Visa if you are an Australian permanent resident.

You can bring the original documentation to the office or alternatively provide a certified copy. This means a photocopy of your original document, signed as being a true and accurate copy by a Justice of the Peace (JP), Barrister or Solicitor, Notary Public, Court Register or Deputy Registrar, Member of Parliament, Land Transport New Zealand, Public Trust, or local authority employee designated for this purpose.

When a learner is in a remote community and unable to access a person listed in the Oaths and Declarations Act, a member of the New Zealand Police, School Principal, Minister of religion, or General Practitioner is acceptable.

International students must bring their passport with them when they enrol. Please note that your name, date of birth and residency as entered on this enrolment form will be included in the National Student Index, if not already registered, and will be used in an Authorised Information Matching programme with the New Zealand Birth Register.
