Te Awamutu police are appealing for any sightings or information on Timothy Irving, who they say is "actively avoiding arrest".
Irving, a 47-year-old Maori, was a prolific offender with an extensive and varied criminal history, said Sergeant Gael Mockford of Te Awamutu police.
He was wanted on a range of matters including a number of fraud charges, contravening a protection order and failure to answer bail.
Irving was from Kihikihi but could be in Te Awamutu, Hamilton or elsewhere in the Waikato, she said.
Irving should not be approached and any sightings reported by dialling 111, she said.
