How to collect an already-issued document in New Zealand
The New Zealand collection is the mailbox: the certificate arrives by international post. The check on arrival (details, apostille present?) closes the cycle — and whatever's missing is ordered online again, no drama.
The rite
The DIA's envelope → the check → the scanned file. No apostille? The Authentication Unit does it on the re-sent document — or you order the new combined set.
Postal timelines
NZ-Brazil postal: 2-4 typical weeks; courier: under one. Kiwi tracking works.
