New Zealand’s government product recalls register, run by MBIE Product Safety: about 1,600 consumer product recalls (children’s toys, baby products, appliances, electric and gas products, vehicles, cosmetics, tools, sports gear, building products) with the hazard, what consumers should do, the barcodes and where the product was sold.

Tools

• nz_recalls_search(query?, category?, sort?, page?) — searches the register, 12 recalls per page, newest first. category is one of airbags, appliances, baby, building, chemicals, toys, clothing, cosmetics, electric_gas, home, medical, office, sand, sports, tools, vehicles; sort is latest, oldest, az or za. Each hit: id, title, recall date, categories, link. total_matching counts the whole filtered register. Zero matches states what was searched.
• nz_recall_get(id) — one recall by its id (the path slug from the search): recall date, categories, product identifiers (barcodes, SKUs, retailers and sale period), supplier company, hazard, what to do, safety-tip links. An unknown id is found:false.

Every response carries source and data_as_of (the newest recall date in the page).

Data sources

• MBIE Product Safety (New Zealand), consumer product recalls register. Read live per call, nothing stored.

Covers consumer products recalled in New Zealand, including vehicle and airbag recalls listed by the register. Food recalls are a different list (MPI) and medicines are issued by Medsafe.

Privacy: supplier and retailer company names are returned; phone numbers and e-mail addresses are removed from every text field.

Traps worth knowing: the keyword is the register’s own text search, so it matches words in the notice body as well as the title; a zero-match search means no entry in this register, not that a product is safe; some recalls list dozens of retailers inside product_identifiers.
