I am traveling to New Zealand in the spring, and I have a question regarding alcohol consumption. The legal drinking age in the United States is 21, yet it is 18 in New Zealand. I am over the age of 18 so I plan on drinking. However, I am assuming my American ID is not going to work to prove my age, so will I use my passport? Asking any students who have studied abroad or just anyone who knows!

Hi, welcome to Travel.SE. Are you planning to have a couple drinks in big cities or small towns? I am not familiar with the situation in NZ, but in my experience (in places closer to where I live) the answer may differ depending on the answer to the above.

You can definitely use your passport to prove your age. It's used by visitors all the time here in NZ, so it won't be unusual, and your bartender will certainly have seen a passport before.
