If your overseas driver licence isn't in English, the New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) legally requires you to have an official English translation of it when driving in New Zealand or to convert your overseas licence to a New Zealand licence.
This translation must be produced by an NZTA approved translator like us.

Why do I need to translate my death certificate?
If a widow or widower wants to remarry in New Zealand, the New Zealand government may require the translation of their deceased spouse's death certificate as proof of the end of that marriage.
