                    [0] => The items in this series are bundles of forms relating to the arrival and departure of visitors to Auckland who were not New Zealand citizens. Visitors who were not New Zealand citizens were required to register with the aliens office on arrival, and provide other information including their intended length of stay and address in New Zealand. In 1957 the Department of Justice took over responsibility for registration of aliens from the Police Department, though the forms suggest the same registration system was used at least until 1958.
