Former New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern could receive more than $1million in a record-breaking advance for her rumoured biography.

Ms Ardern, 42, is believed to be close to signing a book deal with publishing house Penguin after a major bidding war with several international publishers.

Her first authorised biography is set to be Ms Ardern's first major career move since resigning from office in April. 

It's understood the advance for Ms Ardern's book could fetch anywhere between $1million and $1.5million, the New Zealand Herald reported on Friday.

Most publishing advances for Kiwi authors sit between $5,000 and $10,000. A typical memoir for a famous politician could go for as much as $20,000.
