Client codes


 

A client code (a unique number which identifies the exporter) is required to be shown on export entries. Client codes are only issued to New Zealand entities (such as registered New Zealand companies).
 
Applications for client codes should be made on the Application for Client Code form and faxed to your local Customs office, supported by the following evidence of identity:
  • applications from companies and charitable trusts – Certificate of Incorporation
  • applications from individuals – birth certificate and passport or drivers licence
  • applications from other than charitable trusts (applied for in the name of the trustee) – passport or drivers licence.
If you think you may already have a client code, please contact the National Call Centre. (You may be asked to confirm your identity before this information is released.)
