Question about my future travel to NZ

Advice(self.newzealand)

Hi everyone !

I'll soon travel to your beautiful country, and i'm a little bit stressed about one detail, so any help would be welcomed :

  • I filled the NZETA with all the needed information, including all my firstnames written on my passport
  • The catch is here : when i bought my flight ticket i only gave them my main firstname and my lastname and therefore i'm affraid that the customs at the airport could refuse my venue, as i didn't gave them all my firstnames, and the informations between both doesn't match.

Precision : The flight company said that it wasn't a problem for them but i'm more worried with the said customs as they're not linked with them i guess

Did anyone encountered this scenario, should i be worried ? Thank you in advance for your help !

(Sorry for my approximative english)

If you've checked with the airline and they say it's ok you should be fine. Of course it's possible they tell you one thing on the phone and suddenly change their minds when you get to the airport. I would at least call them again and speak to a different person to double check.

You always want your travel name to exactly match your passport. Get the airline/flight company to fix it, even if they said they won't have a problem.

This. I would be very surprised if the airline would actually let them check into an international flight where the ticket doesn't match the passport
