jelly bags, shipped to New Zealand
Prices in New Zealand dollars, tracked delivery, and what arrives at the door.
A jelly bag is made for a New Zealand summer: wipe-clean, water-resistant, and happy to carry wet togs and sunscreen from the beach to the bach. jelli.world makes them in two materials — firm, UV-stable TPU and glossy, opaque PVC — from NZ$53, and ships them to New Zealand tracked, with the checkout total normally the whole cost.
What it costs, door to door
Shipping to New Zealand is £48 (≈ NZ$102) per order, tracked, and free on orders of £150 (≈ NZ$318) or more — three TPU buckets, or six PVC bags. Every order is hand-packed and dispatched the next business day, and arrives in 6–11 business days.
Nothing is normally due at the door. New Zealand doesn't collect duty or GST at the border on goods worth NZ$1,000 or less, and GST on low-value imports is charged at checkout only by overseas sellers registered for it — those selling more than NZ$60,000 a year into New Zealand, which we are not. So a TPU bucket delivered comes to about NZ$216, and that is normally the end of it.
Checkout needs a basket of at least £40 (≈ NZ$85) — any TPU bag on its own, or two PVC bags.
When to order for summer
Summer runs December to February, and jelly is a summer material — the story of that flipped calendar is in summer in December. Order in October or November and the bag lands before the beach does; for Christmas, order by early December. The southern winter is the quiet window, when nothing is sold out and a translucent shade doubles as the wet-weather bag.
The range, in New Zealand dollars
- The TPU bucket — structured, translucent through to solid, and the roomiest shape, 35 × 25 × 14 cm. NZ$114 (£54), in nine colours.
- The TPU East West — long and low, worn on the shoulder, 35 × 19 × 15 cm. NZ$89 (£42), in seven colours.
- The PVC bucket — glossy, opaque and scalloped, 35 × 25 × 14 cm. NZ$53 (£25), in nine colours.
- The PVC East West — the same long, low shape in opaque PVC, 35 × 19 × 15 cm. NZ$53 (£25), in nine colours.
TPU or PVC? TPU is firmer and resists yellowing in strong sun, which counts for a lot in New Zealand; PVC is softer, glossier and cheaper. The comparison is in TPU vs PVC, and every colour in stock is on the jelly bags page.
The New Zealand summer edit
The beach, the ground, the festival
New Zealand venues set their own bag rules — stadiums and summer festivals publish size limits and search bags at the gate. A translucent jelly bag is the quick answer to "searchable at a glance" — check the venue's own bag page before you go; the wider playbook is in clear bags for concerts, festivals & stadiums. For the beach, the packing list is in beach bag essentials.
Questions
Do you ship jelly bags to New Zealand? What does it cost?
Yes — tracked, at £48 (≈ NZ$102) per order rather than per bag, and free on orders of £150 (≈ NZ$318) or more. Every order is hand-packed and dispatched the next business day, and arrives in 6–11 business days.
Will I pay customs duty or GST on delivery?
Normally, no. New Zealand doesn't collect duty or GST at the border on goods worth NZ$1,000 or less, and GST on low-value imports is charged at checkout only by overseas sellers registered for it — those selling more than NZ$60,000 a year into New Zealand, which we are not. A typical order sits far below NZ$1,000, so the checkout total is normally the whole cost.
When should I order for summer?
Summer runs December to February and the popular colours go first. With 6–11 business days door to door, October and November orders land well before the beach season; for Christmas, order by early December.
What currency will I pay in?
Pounds sterling. The NZ$ figures on this page are a guide; your bank converts at its own rate on the day.
Can I return a bag?
Yes — within 14 days of delivery, unused and in its original condition. Return postage is at your cost unless the bag is faulty or we sent the wrong one. The full policy is on the returns page.
