New Zealand Legislation
New Zealand law gives consumers who buy goods and services within New Zealand specific rights and remedies if there are problems. You will find a number of useful links to information about laws that apply in New Zealand on the page below.
If a scam originates in New Zealand then this law may be relevant.
However, most scams cross international
boundaries and New Zealand laws are not able
to provide consumers with protection or
redress. There may be other laws that apply
in the country that a scam originates. You
can follow up with the relevant Authority of
the area from which the scam originates. You
can find a list of Authorities and their
jurisdictions at
International Consumer Protection and
Enforcement Network.
