I am an Indian national and will be traveling to New Zealand as a student. Because I will be staying in New Zealand for 15 months, I was thinking whether I am allowed to carry the following items with me:
canned tin packed food (vegetables and meat)
medicine for hair receding (1 year)
Cash USD 15,000 (tuition and personal expenses)
Is it OK to carry all these items? Am I allowed to travel with these things?
