The 1990 Scotland rugby union tour of New Zealand involved eight rugby union matches played between 30 May and 23 June by the Scotland national rugby union team in New Zealand. It was the third tour of New Zealand by Scotland, who won five matches and drew one, but lost the two test matches against the All Blacks. This was the first time that a Scotland team had been unbeaten in international matches, except on a tour to the Southern Hemisphere.
