Once you have imported your FONZ from Australia to NZ, you must take it to get a safety certificate (MR2). As your FONZ is an EV, you will not need to demonstrate your vehicle complies with NZ emissions standards.
FONZ does not assist with or provide local safety certification, we can direct you to NZ resources who will assist with this process. Please see this webpage from the NZTA for more information about how, where, and how much it costs to obtain your vehicle safety certificate.
Mopeds (LA) and motorcycles (LC) need an MR2A to be registered in NZ. This is not a new requirement. FONZ's vehicles meet requirements for New Zealand compliance and registration, and the VINs can be loaded to the New Zealand NZ Transport Agency.
Present the vehicle to an entry certifier together with appropriate evidence showing it meets the required standards, once it’s approved for registration they’ll issue the MR2A. Your FONZ vehicle will have an SVI attached to the frame to show compliance, and FONZ will provide you a copy of the pre-delivery inspection checklist for your vehicle.
For further information, please email vehicleinspections@nzta.govt.nz
NOTE All fees, duties, and NZ GST due on import to New Zealand of your FONZ vehicle are solely the responsibility of the person/party importing the vehicle. None of these costs are included in the AUD purchase price of your FONZ electric vehicle.
