Hi Rebecca
Ouch! That's a tricky one. I thought all Commonwealth passport holders were exempt, but I see that New Zealand is excluded from that for some strange reason.
T&T have very few overseas embassies and consulates and there doesn't appear to be one in the Middle East. My best advice would be to telephone one of the European ones. You can get telephone, fax and email contact information from

Hi.Havent managed to get a reply from yes tourism.Tobago consulate in New Zealand appears to consist of one man who is proving impossible to
contact.Any other ideas or shall I just risk it and try for a visa on entry.

Hello Rebecca,
oops, we must have overlooked your e-mail. I can only blame an hyperactive spam filter for that. We will look into your problem first thing in the morning.
Promised!

Dear Rebecca
we have just spoken to immigration in Tobago
Visitors from New Zealand and Australia need to have a visa prior to entry.
Immigration has also informed us that there is a Honorary Consulate in New Zealand for T&T but could not give us any contact information.
You should be able to contact any British High Commission to apply for a visa for T&T
Hope this helps, best regards
Tanja Mohammed
thanks

Hi Rebecca
that is correct, most of the British High Commissions offer visa services for T&T, take care
