4 September 1939 because New Zealand was one of the first countries to be involved in the global conflict precipitated by Germany's invasion of Poland on 1 Sept. It was a consequence of Britain's defence pact with Poland, and consequent war declaration on the 3 Sept, and many British commonwealth countries were of course directly affected.

Britain warned Germany that they would declare war on Germany if Germany attacked Poland. When Germany invaded Poland the British had no choice but to declare war.
