    I too am looking into getting a bank account in NZ from here in Oz. I got a response from one bank that I have pasted below. Does any have any ideas on which bank will enable me to set it up from here?

    Thank you for your message regarding opening accounts with the Bank of New
    Zealand.

    To open an account you will need to visit a Bank of New Zealand branch. We
    require all new applicants to be present in a branch when opening an
    account and for the relevant information to be available. We can therefore
    not open accounts while a customer is overseas.

    If you are planning to be in New Zealand please visit one of our branches
    and enquire about opening an account. You will find information on opening
    an account on this website along with an application form:

    The information provided on this site is for New Zealand residents only.
    Any offer of securities on this site is only an offer to persons resident
    in New Zealand and is not available for subscription by any person outside
    New Zealand.

    For further advice or assistance, or to discuss tailoring a financial
    package to meet your needs, please email us. Alternatively, call us on
    0800 275 269 (0800 Ask BNZ) or fax us on 0800 329 269 (0800 Fax BNZ). From
    overseas, please call +64 4 494 9098 or fax +64 4 470 3071 (Toll charges
    apply).
