Those who are unvaccinated still need to isolate for 14 days, RNZ reports. Vaccinated people who are identified as close contacts now only need to isolate for seven days, while unvaccinated close contacts need to isolate for 10 days. International arrivals now are only required to isolate at a MIQ facility for seven days, then complete three days of home isolation. Non-New Zealand travellers will have to be fully vaccinated, but unvaccinated children and New Zealand adults are eligible to leave after seven days. Over 2500 returnees were eligible to leave MIQ on Sunday if they had been isolating at MIQ for seven or more days.
