Summer services update

Our offices and services will have reduced availability over the holiday period. Read more about our holiday hours and services availability.

Tell us if you think someone has broken the overseas investment rules.

What we want to know

You can help us protect New Zealand’s sensitive land and assets by telling us when you think an overseas investor has:

bought sensitive land without consent
obtained an interest of $100 million or more in a New Zealand business without consent, or
not kept the commitments they made when they obtained consent under the Act.
