I am about a month away from my move to Auckland. I realized that I have not applied for IRD number yet. Is it something I should do before I land there? or can I do that while I land in Auckland?
How much time does it takes to get the IRD number?

Have a look at
http://www.ird.govt.nz/how-to/irdnum...201405MegaMenu
You can apply online after you arrive. The website says you will get your IRD number by email in 2 days.
Thank you very much
if you have kids, you may also want to apply for them. It is super easy here in NZ - fill up the form, go to IRD agents together with the forms and supporting documents (and yes, the applicants must be physically there), and you are done!
