Multinational companies like Kobo are used to dealing with national tax systems. I'm sure that they will comply with the law. They already have systems in place to charge VAT to customers in the EU, so as far as their store is concerned it's probably little more than adding NZ to the list of countries where customers are charged sales tax.
