Tokelau travel advice

Originally settled by Polynesian emigrants from surrounding island groups, the Tokelau Islands were made a British protectorate in 1889. They were transferred to New Zealand administration in 1925. Referenda held in 2006 and 2007 to change the status of the islands from that of a New Zealand territory to one of free association with New Zealand did not meet the needed threshold for approval.

Location – Oceania, group of three atolls in the South Pacific Ocean, about one-half of the way from Hawaii to New Zealand
