The 2021 Special Honours in New Zealand were three special honours lists, published in New Zealand on 9 August,[1] 28 September,[2] and 21 December 2021.[3]
Appointments were made to the New Zealand Order of Merit and the Queen's Service Order to incoming governor-general, Dame Cindy Kiro, and the outgoing vice-regal consort, Sir David Gascoigne. There was also a redesignation for the writer Vincent O'Sullivan from Distinguished Companion to Knight Companion of New Zealand Order of Merit.
