Why New Zealand asks for a legalised agency agreement
An agency or distribution agreement appoints a local company abroad to import, register or sell your products. Many countries require it to be registered with a ministry before the agent can act, and they accept it only once legalised. The agency or distribution agreement is executed between your Indian company and the foreign agent, signed by your authorised signatory.
Registering a business presence in Oceania usually needs apostilled company documents from India.
Authorities, banks and business partners in New Zealand usually ask for a legalised agency agreement for registering a commercial agent or distributor, product registration by the local agent or exclusive territory appointments.
A agency agreement issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce and then apostilled by the MEA. New Zealand accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.
