The exchange rates published are the “Buy TT” rates from our bank (Westpac NZ), as these are the relevant rates for buying a foreign currency. Note that there is a discrepancy between this rate and the “Sell TT” rate, which is often mistakenly quoted by some agents.
This rate is valid for a period of 7 days from the time the invoice is sent out.
Please Note: There is small incremental buffer included to counter any fluctuations within the time period before payment is made.
Queenstown Weather Update and Impacts
Over the past 24 hours there has been heavy rain in Queenstown and Southland which has impacted isolated parts of the region. The weather has now eased, however there are still some affected areas and roads.
Queenstown town centre
The most heavily impacted areas are limited to the streets above the Queenstown town centre. We would like to assure you and your clients that the town centre is open and accessible with safety signage and instructions in place where needed. The Queenstown Airport is open and unaffected, along with most other areas. Some care is needed while driving on affected roads.

For any changes that are being made, we will ensure you are updated and are fully across any amendments. While we are working through these challenges, please be aware there might be some slight delays in turnaround times, however we are doing our very best to ensure this is not the case.
