Getting a classification decision changed

There are two ways you can apply to have a New Zealand classification decision changed.

Seeking a review from the Film and Literature Board of Review

A review is where the Film and Literature Board of Review reviews a recently classified publication and issues a new decision, which replaces the decision of the Classification Office. Find out more here.

Seeking a reconsideration by the Classification Office

A reconsideration is where the Classification Office re-examines a publication, and either alters or confirms the previous classification decision on the publication. Find out more here.
