Ball Pythons in New Zealand?
Don't think so. No ball pythons, no snakes, period. Not even in zoos. Too bad. However, if anyone has information to the contrary I'd be happy to receive it.

Look into NZ wildlife resources, however if NZ is like Australia then no non native snakes can be kept.

Your PetsSome of the pets you can't import into New Zealand
■Birds
■Reptiles
■Snakes
■Ferrets
■Guinea Pigs
■Mice & rats*
*Except as laboratory animals The requirements for bringing pets into New Zealand depend on the type of animal, where it's from and if there is an existing import health standard.
Current conditions and disease concerns mean that there are very few types of pets allowed into New Zealand. Importation is currently limited to dogs and cats from certain countries, rabbits from Australia and chinchillas from the United Kingdom.
