Application to register an amended party logo

Jun 3, 2026 | News

The Electoral Commission is considering an application made under Part 4 of the Electoral Act 1993 to register the following amended political party logo:

Party Name: New Zealand First Party

Applicant: Holly Howard, Party Secretary

Registration of a logo is needed for it to appear on a voting paper.
  
Registration of a party logo may be refused if the logo is indecent, offensive, likely to cause confusion or mislead electors, or contains any reference to a title or honour or similar form of identification, infringes an intellectual property right or breaches any enactment.

Anyone who wishes to comment on the amended party logo may do so in writing to the Electoral Commission at:

The deadline for comments is 5pm, Wednesday 17 June 2026.

For more information on the logo variation process see our guidance and rules for starting a political party, email enquiries@elections.govt.nz or phone 04 495 0030 9am–5pm Monday to Friday.
