The New Zealand cricket team toured South Africa for cricket matches in the 2005–06 season. Owing to South Africa's busy schedule,the tour was split into two legs,one to be played in October 2005 with the six limited overs matches,and the second leg to be played in April and May 2006,including three Test matches. Before the limited overs series began,New Zealand were ranked third on the ICC ODI Championship table,two places ahead of their hosts South Africa. However,New Zealand had never won an ODI series in South Africa before this tour,and they were not to do it this summer either.

The test series was similarly disappointing for New Zealand,with South Africa claiming it 2-0. After two series losses to Australia it was a satisfying result for the South Africans.
