Answer

As at 31 December 2025, a total of $418.978 million of International Visitor Conservation and Tourism Levy revenue has been collected. I refer the Member to the table 'International Visitor Conservation and Tourism Levy Revenue Report' available on the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment website: https://www.mbie.govt.nz/immigration-and-tourism/tourism/tourism-funding/international-visitor-conservation-and-tourism-levy/what-is-the-ivl.
