In case of a consular emergency the honorary consul can assist in certain circumstances.

Honorary consuls in New Zealand can be contacted 24 hours a day, 7 days a week via telephone nr +64 4 471 6390.

Lost or stolen passport

If your passport is lost or stolen, you can request a ‘laissez-passer’ by phone on +64 4 471 6390.

Your request for a laissez-passer will be processed immediately. The honorary consul will contact you and, in case you are eligible, provide you with a laissez-passer. The release of a laissez-passer takes 1 to 2 days. Please check with your airline whether you are allowed to board with a Dutch laissez-passer.

It is also possible to request a new passport at the embassy in Wellington via an emergency procedure. This takes 8 to 10 days and you have to do the request in person. Your new passport will be valid for 10 years.

Remaining civil affairs

Since the honorary consuls merely provide ‘laissez-passers’, you can contact the embassy in Wellington for any remaining civil affairs services. However, often a ‘justice of the peace’ or ‘notary public’ in your area may provide the requested service.
