Democrats Abroad (New Zealand) Inc. is an official country committee of Democrats Abroad, an international political organisation representing overseas Americans.  The Democratic National Committee recognises Democrats Abroad as a state party committee. 

Democrats Abroad elects representatives to serve on the Democratic National Committee and nominates delegates to the national convention that develops the Democratic Party platform and nominates the party’s candidates for president and vice president.

As a country committee, Democrats Abroad (New Zealand) Inc. serves as the national affiliate of Democrats Abroad, representing the interests of Democrats living in New Zealand.  The organisation in New Zealand adheres to the bylaws of Democrats Abroad adopted in Geneva, Switzerland on 16 Nov 2002.

The country committee consists of registered Democratic voters pledged to support Democrat candidates for state and national offices in the United States.  Other supporters, including New Zealand citizens who do not hold U.S. citizenship, may participate in Democrats Abroad (New Zealand) Inc. events, but may not contribute financial resources to the Democratic Party or its candidates for office.

American citizens may join Democrats Abroad (New Zealand) Inc. and the parent organisation, Democrats Abroad, by contacting a country committee member.  An annual donation of NZ$75.00 is requested to support voter outreach efforts in New Zealand and the election of Democratic Party candidates back home.
