Can I bring my regular medication (e.g., for blood pressure) into NZ?

If you are arriving into New Zealand with prescription medicines (other than medicines containing controlled drugs), on you or in your luggage you must: have a copy of the prescription from your doctor, or a letter from your doctor stating that you are being treated with the medicine(s), and carry the medicine(s) in their original containers, and have a quantity not exceeding three months’ supply for prescription medicines (with the exception of oral contraceptives which can be supplied in six-month quantities). If you are carrying more than three months’ supply of prescription medicines or medicine that is not prescribed to you or a family member, this must be declared on your arrival declaration.
