Hookah pipes, water pipes and smoking utensils
Smoking pipes such as those frequently referred to as hookahs, shisha, sheesha, arguileh, hubble-bubbles, Turkish, water pipes, bongs, and hash pipes are prohibited imports to New Zealand and will be subject to seizure upon arrival. These items, as well as roach clips with a pincer or tweezer action, are considered in New Zealand law to be cannabis and/or methamphetamine utensils and are therefore unlawful, irrespective of their end use.
