NZ Citizenship Test Practice

Free practice questions for the test coming in late 2027. Every answer cites the source it comes from. 30 questions in the bank, growing as we verify more.

What this practice is

  • Free. No paywall, no signup, unlimited retakes.
  • Source-cited. Every answer links to the NZ statute, official page or DIA release it came from.
  • Built around the announced test design. 20 multiple-choice questions across six topic areas, 75% to pass — the same format DIA announced on 6 May 2026.
  • We don't know DIA's actual question wording. No one outside DIA does yet. We'll re-verify against the official syllabus when DIA publishes it.
  • Independent. Not affiliated with DIA or the New Zealand Government.

Topics covered

  • Bill of Rights Act — 5 questions
  • Human rights — 5 questions
  • Voting & democracy — 5 questions
  • System of government — 5 questions
  • Criminal offences — 5 questions
  • Passport & travel — 5 questions

How we make this trustworthy

  • Every question is written against a named NZ source (legislation.govt.nz, parliament.nz, elections.nz, gg.govt.nz, govt.nz).
  • Each question carries a verified date. The whole bank was last reviewed 2026-05-13.
  • When DIA publishes the official syllabus, we'll re-review every question against it.
