Japan–New Zealand relations refers to the diplomatic relations between Japan and New Zealand. Both nations are members of APEC, Australia Group, Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development and the United Nations.

History

Initial contact between Japan and New Zealand was via London as New Zealand was a part of the British Empire. In 1928, while New Zealand was a self-governing dominion within the British empire; Japan and New Zealand signed a provisional arrangement concerning commerce, customs and navigation.[1] In 1938, Japan opened a consulate in Wellington. During World War II, New Zealand forces fought against Japan, primarily in Singapore, the Solomon Islands and in the waters surrounding Japan.[2] Towards the end of the war, in 1944, New Zealand warships the HMNZS Achilles and HMS Gambia bombarded the Japanese coast. The war in the Pacific soon ended after the American atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945.[2]

In 1947, New Zealand became an independent nation. In 1952, both nations established diplomatic relations and that same year, New Zealand opened a diplomatic legation in Tokyo. The following year, Japan opened a legation in Wellington.[1] In 1955, Prime Minister Sidney Holland became the first New Zealand head-of-government to pay an official visit to Japan. The visit was reciprocated in 1957 by Japanese Prime Minister Nobusuke Kishi.[1] Since the normalization of relations, Japan and New Zealand have developed strong political ties with, common views and a shared interest in the stability, growth and development of the Asia Pacific region.[3] In April 2012, both nations celebrated 60 years of diplomatic relations.[3]
