Hi David,
A few years ago, a couple friends of mine had a family Steinway GP shipped from Germany to NYC.  They had to get it OK'd through the Dept. of Agriculture, showing that it was a family affair, and the piano was going to be used as a musical instrument, noone having intentions of reselling ivory keytops!   I imagine it would be a similar process going the other direction.  One would probably need to contact the govt. of New Zealand.
