Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Most travelers need to be vaccinated and take 2 rapid antigen tests (RATs) after arriving in New Zealand. If you are aged 17 years and over, and are not a New Zealand citizen, resident or Australian citizen who lives in New Zealand, you must meet vaccination requirements to enter New Zealand.

Detailed explanation-2: -New Zealand’s swift response to the pandemic, tough pandemic rules, and its geographic isolation kept it largely free from the virus until the end of last year. The government dropped its zero-COVID policy this year once the population was largely vaccinated. Since then the virus has been allowed to spread.

Detailed explanation-3: -In March 2020, New Zealand committed to an Elimination Strategy in response to the COVID-19 pandemic which provided a sustained approach to keep it out, find it and stamp it out. This was an important approach toward a continually evolving virus and to keeping New Zealanders safe from COVID-19.
