HPV immunisation began in New Zealand in 2008.

On 1 January 2017, HPV immunisation became free for everyone aged 9 to 26, including non-residents under the age of 18.

HPV immunisation is available through participating schools or from family doctors, local health centres and some Sexual Wellbeing Aotearoa clinics.
