REGULATIONS.

1. THESE regulations shall apply to bona fide merchants, tourists, or students, including Chinese, who cannot comply with the provisions of the Immigration Restriction Act, or to Chinese merchants, tourists, or students who, although able to comply with such provisions, do not wish to pay poll-tax.

2. Certificates in the form set forth in the Schedule hereto, signed by the Collector of Customs at the port of issue, will be issued to bona fide merchants, tourists, or students who can produce passports issued by the Governments of their respective countries and vised by the British Consul in those countries or by any other duly authorized British authority:

Provided that no certificate shall be issued to any person debarred from landing by paragraphs (b), (c), and (d) of section 14 of the Immigration Restriction Act, 1908:

Provided also that in any case where in the opinion of the Minister of Customs there are special circumstances, he may authorize the issue of a certificate without the production of a passport upon a bond being given for £100, with security satisfactory to the Collector, that the person named therein shall leave New Zealand upon the expiry of a period not exceeding six months.

3. (1.) Merchants or tourists coming under these regulations may land and remain in New Zealand for a period not exceeding six months, and students may land and remain for a period to be ascertained within one month of arrival, but not exceeding six years.

(2.) Such persons shall not again be granted a certificate should they return to New Zealand before the expiry of five years from the date of their departure upon the preceding visit, except on such special conditions as may be prescribed by the Minister.

4. The Minister may in cases of extreme urgency extend the certificate of any merchant, student, or tourist for such time and subject to such conditions as he thinks fit.

5. (1.) Every person applying to the Collector of Customs for a certificate shall provide two photographs of himself taken within one year of such application. The photographs shall be securely attached to the certificates, one of which shall be handed to the applicant and the other filed by the Collector.

(2.) The applicant shall also deposit a sum of £10 with the Collector as security that he will report upon departure from New Zealand, and that sum shall be returned to him by the Collector at the port of departure upon identification and upon complying with these regulations.

(3.) The amount deposited on account of any person who departs without being identified or who remains in New Zealand beyond the time permitted by his certificate shall be forfeited and paid into the Public Account.

6. Immediately before departure from New Zealand the holder of a certificate shall personally deliver up the same to the Collector of Customs at the port of departure.

7. Certificates delivered up at a port of departure shall be forwarded to the Collector at the port of issue, to be filed with the duplicate.

8. Notwithstanding anything hereinbefore contained, any prohibited immigrant or Chinese arriving at a New Zealand port en route to some place beyond New Zealand may be permitted to land for a period not exceeding twenty-one days, provided that a bond, with security satisfactory to the Collector of Customs, is given that the person named therein shall report himself to the Collector upon departure from New Zealand within the time specified.
