A U.S. export license is required for the export of firearms to New Zealand except for shotguns with a barrel length of 18 inches or more, antique firearms (manufactured before 1890), muzzle-loading black powder firearms, BB guns, pellet rifles, paintball guns, and air rifles.
Exports of many firearm parts and components from the United States also require an export license unless a “license exception” is available. One license exception, the LVS exception, authorizes U.S. exporters to export up to $500 of semi-automatic and non-automatic firearm parts to New Zealand without an export license. The LVS exception is not available for frames, receivers, or breech mechanisms, but other parts qualify for the exception if their total value in the shipment does not exceed $500.
