Our relationship with Taiwan
While New Zealand does not maintain diplomatic relations with Taiwan, we do have a vibrant trading, economic and cultural relationship. We’re both members of APEC, the World Trade Organisation (WTO), a number of fisheries conventions and the Asian Development Bank. Taiwan is an important source of imports, tourism and students, and an important export market for New Zealand.
As well as trade, we enjoy extensive people-to-people links. There are employment opportunities for New Zealanders in Taiwan, particularly in teaching, and the number of art and cultural exchanges is growing. Many Taiwanese have migrated to New Zealand since the 1990s, and there is a sizeable Taiwanese population in Auckland. Tourism, education and business links are supported by a three-month visa waiver.
Trade
Taiwan is our 7th-largest goods export market and 16th-largest source of imports as at March 2024. Our dairy, meat, fruit, and seafood are very popular with Taiwanese consumers and we’re their largest supplier of dairy products as well as cherries.
New Zealand has an agreement on Economic Cooperation with the Separate Customs Territory of Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu which was signed in 2013.

我們與臺灣的關係
雖然紐西蘭與臺灣沒有外交關係，但我們之間擁有生氣勃勃的貿易、經濟、和文化關係。雙方都是亞太經合會議(APEC)、世界貿易組織(WTO)、多項漁業公約、和亞洲開發銀行的成員。對紐西蘭而言，臺灣是很重要的進口對象、觀光與投資、和主要出口市場。
除了貿易以外，我們之間還有廣泛的人際連結。紐西蘭人在臺灣有很好的就業機會，尤其是在教學領域。臺紐之間的藝術及文化交流也日益活絡。1990年代以來，已有許多臺灣人移民紐西蘭。尤其在奧克蘭，我們有大量的臺橋。自從2009年11月實施三個月免簽證以來，臺紐之間的觀光、教育、以及商業聯繫，更大為增強。
貿易
截至2023年3月為止，臺灣是我們的第8大出口市場和第14大進口對象。紐西蘭的乳製品、肉類、水果、海鮮、和林產品，非常受到臺灣人的歡迎。我們更是臺灣最大的乳製品和櫻桃供應國。
2013年，紐西蘭與臺澎金馬個別關稅領域(中華台北)簽署了經濟合作協定。隨後，關稅迅速取消，為雙方開啟大量貿易機會。
