About the honorary consulate in Zagreb
The Croatian Foreign Ministry’s directory lists office hours (Monday to Friday 09:00–12:00); as honorary consuls work part-time, confirm before you go.
Croatian citizens do not need a visa for New Zealand, but must obtain an electronic travel authorisation (NZeTA) before departure, according to the Croatian Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs. See the ministry’s visa overview for New Zealand (in Croatian).
Which New Zealand office issues passports and visas?
Official documents for New Zealand citizens are issued by the New Zealand Embassy in Rome (accredited to Croatia); the honorary consulate can explain the procedure.
Note: New Zealand has no resident embassy in Zagreb; its embassy in Rome is accredited to Croatia.

What can an honorary consul do?
An honorary consul is not a career diplomat but a local resident – often a business person or lawyer – appointed by New Zealand and approved by the host country. Depending on the powers granted, the honorary consul can help New Zealand citizens in an emergency (lost passport, accident, arrest), pass on applications and documents to the embassy, and certify signatures or life certificates. Passports and visas are not issued by an honorary consulate; they remain the responsibility of the embassy or a career consulate.
