Hi Dawn,
I would agree with WG on bringing everything 'legal-related' with you. I can find very little on the subject so far, although heaps of people must have gone through this.
I read something about NZIS checking whether you're legally divorced to prevent issues like previous partners making any claim to residency etc. in NZ so they need to ensure that ties are well and truly severed.
I'm sure it'd be a lot easier to get the papers in the UK before you leave than have to do it from NZ should it be required, so well worth the effort.
