the time zone
Because it takes almost seven (7) hours for the sun to appear to move from nz to Iran, and we set our clocks to the sun, such that "Noon" everywhere is roughly the time when the sun appears highest in the sky. If Iran and nz were the same time zone, then either the sun would not rise until 1:00 in the afternoon in Iran, or else it would not set until 1:00 in the morning in nz.
Tonga is UT +13 hours, and New Zealand is UT + 12 hours. And New Zealand has daylight savings of 1 hour, whereas Tonga does not. But the Chatham Islands are UT +12.45, so if that was the part of New Zealand you were in, that would matter. You now have plenty of information for your Question.
