Get your Niue Health Declaration easily with iVisa!

Niue is a unique island located in the South Pacific Ocean between Fiji, Tonga, and Samoa. Some gorgeous scenery can be found along Niue's rocky coastline, such as limestone cliffs, caves, and exposed coral formations. But before you go, check the travel requirements for Niue, including completing the Niue Health Declaration.

As a self-governing nation in free association with New Zealand, Niue can only be reached by air through New Zealand. Therefore, the border entry requirements for both New Zealand and Niue must be met by all visitors from outside New Zealand.

This page will provide more information about the Niue Traveler Declaration Form specifically and how to complete it before your trip.

What is the Niue Traveler Declaration Form?

Niue opened up for tourism in June 2022. However, all travelers to Niue must fill out a traveler declaration form with their flight details, proof of COVID-19 vaccination or COVID-19 test result, and other personal information. It is a replacement for the previous Niue contact form, used to monitor travelers entering the country in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.

After completion, the applicant will receive a traveler pass, which states all the individual requirements for entering the country based on their details. To board their flight to Niue, passengers must present their pass, which contains a unique QR code. They must again show this on arrival at the customs desk on a mobile device or printed version.

Who must fill out the Niue Traveler Declaration Form?

According to the Niue government, all travelers wanting to enter Niue must complete and submit a Niue Traveler Declaration. This applies to all incoming passengers, including minors, citizens, and permanent residents.

It is necessary for each traveler to complete an individual declaration. Through iVisa, you can easily add another traveler to your request if you're traveling with more than one person, such as your family. Simply click 'Add Another Person' during the online application process.
