Cricket world cup 2015 Visa Procedure and requirement: A joint visa has been introduced for cricket fans eager to watch the Cricket World Cup 2015, which will be hosted by Australia and New Zealand.
The visa will grant travellers with an existing Australian visa, a visa on arrival to New Zealand when the countries are visited during the period of the World Cup.
This was decided under the Trans-Tasman agreement signed by both World Cup hosts. The Cricket World Cup 2015 will be held from February 14 to March 29, 2015 with all 14 qualifying teams to play matches in both Australia and New Zealand.
The joint visa will be valid between January 26 and April 5, 2015, giving travellers plenty of time to spend in both countries.
Cricket fans visiting the countries within the given time period have to only apply and pay for one visa, while granted access to both countries.
The visa on arrival to New Zealand will be available for people holding almost any type of Australian visa. However, visitors heading down South to watch the matches will most likely apply for the visitor visa, or subclass 600.
Airline connections: Connecting flights to New Zealand are available on Singapore Airlines, Thai Airways, Cathay Pacific and Malaysia Airlines with stop-overs in their respective hubs. New Zealand�s international gateways are Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch.
Domestic services: You can fly between all New Zealand cities and most major towns using domestic air services. Air New Zealand and Jetstar are the main providers. Their services are complemented by regional airlines, charter companies and scenic flight operators.
