Considering a move to NZ and part of a job application is getting a credit check. I had a period where I missed some credit card payments due to being unemployed and having no money. I am now caught up on payments. Wondering if the NZ credit reporting agencies will be able to access my credit details from Australia?
Cheers

I don't have any details, but I do recall that it is possible to search between NZ and Australia. I know Equifax (previously Veda... and a large multinational credit reporter) has a presence in both Australia and NZ. It's not automatic however, and I'm not sure how restricted access may be.
