Nationally Coordinated Criminal History Check for New Zealand Citizens
New Zealand citizens in Australia may need both a Nationally Coordinated Criminal History Check for employment screening and a VEVO check to confirm current visa or work rights details. New Zealand citizens with a valid New Zealand passport do not generally need to apply for a visa before travelling to Australia, and if eligible, may be granted a Special Category Visa (subclass 444) when they enter Australia.
The Special Category Visa is electronic, so visa details and conditions can be checked online through VEVO. If an employer or requesting organisation needs evidence of your work rights, you can get a VEVO check via AuthNTick to see your visa or work rights status.
Australia-wide National Police Checks
Available for applicants in NSW, QLD, VIC, WA, SA, TAS, ACT and NT.

National Police Certificate
Your completed check result is issued as a National Police Certificate. The certificate shows whether the applicant has No Disclosable Court Outcomes or Disclosable Court Outcomes at the time the check is completed.
