Important message
The personal information we hold on the register is protected by privacy laws. For that reason, if you need somebody's personal information from us, you must have a very good reason for asking for it. 

The law only permits the release of personal information for the following purposes:

  • enforcement of the law
  • maintenance of the security of New Zealand
  • collection of charges imposed or authorised by an enactment
  • the administration and development of transport law and policy, and
  • where the public interest outweighs the privacy of the individual concerned.

We can't tell you if your application would be declined before you submit it, because each request for information is different and considered on a case-by-case basis. We can tell you that your application will most likely be declined unless you provide some exceptional evidence showing a good reason for needing the information and it fits the legislated criteria listed above

By continuing with this transaction you accept our Website Terms of Use
