New Zealand currency and setting up your NZ bank account

Remember to bring your Local debit card, Credit card and some New Zealand dollars in mixed denominations, for example $5, $10 and $20 notes. You will need to have you at least NZ$200 cash on you for your first week to cover taxis, food and other expenses.
