While New Zealand is not a signatory to the Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals, road signs in New Zealand generally stays close to the convention concerning shape and function. New Zealand uses yellow diamond-shaped signs for warnings in common with Australia, the Americas, Japan and Thailand. Speed limit signs are a red circle with a white background and the limitation in black, and are in kilometres per hour. There are also some signs unique to New Zealand. Road signs in New Zealand are controlled by the New Zealand Transport Agency and are prescribed in the Traffic Control Devices (TCD) Manual.

New Zealand drives on the left.
