The New Zealand dollar ( ISO 4217: NZD, sometimes NZ$ and often informally known as the Kiwi dollar) is the official currency of New Zealand and the Cook Islands. It was introduced in 1967 to replace the New Zealand pound, when the country decimalised its currency.

The Pitcairn Islands, Niue and Tokelau also use the New Zealand Dollar.

The NZD, like the US Dollar, is made up of 100 cents.
