Stats NZ

Customised data services

Our analysts can create a dataset specific to your needs.


Use our customised data services if you want:

  • more detailed or older data than what's available online
  • a different format or layout than we've provided
  • someone to extract the data for you
  • one-on-one help from an expert
  • our team to extract data on your behalf in the Integrated Data Infrastructure (IDI).

Data we can provide

We can provide customised datasets from any collections where it is possible to do so, including:

  • accommodation
  • births, deaths, and marriages
  • building consents issued
  • business demography
  • Census of Population and Dwellings
  • disability
  • general social survey
  • household expenditure and income
  • household labour force (employment and unemployment)
  • international travel and migration
  • overseas trade (imports and exports)
  • population estimates
  • retail trade
  • Te Kupenga.

We can also provide customised data for university staff and students, often at no cost, as part of a memorandum of understanding between Stats NZ and the Council of New Zealand University Librarians (CONZUL).

Census data for iwi and iwi-related groups

Stats NZ is working with iwi to enable greater access to data and the insights data can provide. As part of this, we are offering free census data to iwi.

Data we provide though our website is always free of charge. But this offer means you can also get customised datasets, made to meet your specific needs, at no charge.

Go to Te Ara Takatū: Census data for iwi and iwi-related groups for more information, and to request data.

Cost

We charge $155 per hour plus GST. 

These charges cover our costs for customising data to individual specifications. We don’t charge for the data itself.

University staff and students can access Stats NZ data, customised for their research, often at no cost.
