New Zealand said on Tuesday it will partially resume quarantine-free travel with Australia and rescind all COVID-19 curbs in place in Wellington as no community cases were reported in the capital city after over a week of restrictions.

Quarantine-free travel will resume with South Australia, Tasmania and Victoria from July 5, COVID-19 Response Minister Chrish Hipkins told a news conference.

Coronavirus restrictions in Wellington will be eased from midnight on Tuesday, Hipkins said.
