For the US forum members anyone who wants to bring in Medical Cannabis products from the US into New Zealand while they are in New Zealand for working or tourism purposes can no longer do so as the New Zealand Customs has changed the criteria for Medical Cannabis products from the US must be FDA approved:

Cannabis-based products for medical use supplied in the United States
Cannabis-based products supplied in the United States of America cannot be carried with you when entering or leaving New Zealand.
A number of US states permit the medical use of cannabis. However cannabis-based products for medical use from the United States are not considered lawfully supplied under federal law, unless the product has US Food and Drug Administration approval. To date, no drug product containing or derived from botanical cannabis (the cannabis plant) has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration.
Customs staff will be working to the updated information from Wednesday 7 December 2016.
