onward-flight ticket needed for entering New Zealand or Australia?

I´ve heard stories about NZ-Airlines insisting on a onward flight ticket for motorcycle-travellers flying from Chile to NZ.

No question, this is required for some countries officially, but we never had to give proof, when entering any of these countries with our motorcycles.

How is your experience for NZ and OZ?
Is it the airlines who give you trouble or immigrations?

Does a faked flight confirmation work?
Are Airlines going to NZ able to check the tickets/confirmations codes?

Greetings from Brasil

sure do

Hi,
Have no doubt the authorities here in NZ will double check everything. Do not, and I repeat DO NOT try to fake your way through they will check. Hope that helps

Ride safe

Thumbs down

right, not a good idea.

better is to get a visa at the nz embassy in your country before, there you do not need to provide a return ticket, you just have to proove that you have sufficiant funds to buy one once u r there .... at least for Germans its like this... just talked to the embassy last week and send them my passport and my bank statement ...

goog luck
