In words: A rotatable globe showing New Zealand's overseas diplomatic missions as pins joined to Wellington by arcs. Missions can be filtered by type, region and year opened.
This map shows New Zealand’s current overseas missions as listed by Wikipedia, which cites the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade. Honorary consulates are not included.
A mission can also look after neighbouring countries it is not based in, which is why the pin height option for countries covered matters. The list can lag behind the ministry, so check mfat.govt.nz before relying on it.
