For DOC hunting permits, 30 minutes after sunset means exactly that.
The time of sunset is in the newspaper, on the metservice website and heaps of other sources, it's probably even on your phone.
I was walking out along a track just barely able to see where the track goes when a deer started barking at me. There was no way I could see it without artificial light, yet it was before sunset (dense canopy, cloudy day, east side of the hill). I was already carrying out two deer so I politely told the barking one to F off.
