Re: Bringing tools to NZ

Is there a problem with bringing over golf clubs & bags?
I've got 2 sets to bring over & I've given them a good clean & was thinking they would be ok, don't really want to have to buy more new stuff.

Re: New MAF Rules for pets

We're looking to send our dog over in December, but he's likely to be in NZ before we can move over, who would we contact to get an official response on how much duty we would have to pay?
