Trips to Brazil taken by people living in New Zealand

New Zealand-resident travellers: People who live in New Zealand and are travelling overseas for less than 12 months.
Country of main destination: The country where a New Zealand-resident traveller will spend the most time while overseas. Departure cards do not ask travellers which other countries they intend to visit on the same trip.
Travel purpose: The main purpose of the trip overseas. Categories are holiday, visiting friends and relatives, business, conferences and conventions, education, and other.

From March 2020 to July 2022, the New Zealand government implemented measures to protect New Zealanders from the COVID-19 virus, effectively limiting travel to and from New Zealand.

Country of main destination

Note: the 2023 data for countries with small samples is subject to high level of misclassification error and should be disregarded.

Before November 2018, the travel purpose of New Zealand-resident travellers was based on departure card responses and linked to the correspondent arrival card via the passport number.
From November 2018, they are based on arrival card responses. This results in different patterns in purpose of travel. The two series should not be compared.

The travel purpose categories of New Zealand-resident travellers have been revised back to January 2020.
From November 2018 to December 2019, the travel purposes of 'Holiday/vacation', 'Visiting friends/relatives', and 'Conference/convention' were unavailable.
From January 2020, these travel purpose categories are separately available from a redesigned arrival card and excluded from the 'Other' category.
