Shipping Padel Gear to New Zealand

New Zealand's padel gear selection is growing but still limited compared to Spain or Australia. Here's what you need to know about ordering internationally.

GST and Customs Duty

New Zealand charges 15% GST on all imported goods. Most international retailers now collect GST at checkout for orders under $1,000 NZD, so you won't get a surprise bill from Customs on delivery.

Sporting equipment like padel rackets and shoes is generally duty-free under NZ's trade agreements. The main additional cost is GST, which is the same rate you'd pay buying locally.

Best International Retailers

Tennis Warehouse Australia ships to NZ quickly and affordably. Growing padel range with Head, Wilson, and Babolat. Closest major retailer geographically.

Padel Nuestro (Spain) has the world's largest padel selection. Ships worldwide. Competitive prices, especially on Spanish brands like Bullpadel, NOX, and StarVie.

Padel Mania (Spain) often undercuts Padel Nuestro on premium rackets. Worth comparing before ordering.
