Kent have announced that New Zealand international Tom Latham will play for them during the 2016 campaign.
The 23-year-old, who has scored three Test centuries, has made himself available for all three formats of the game.
"I'm delighted to have joined Kent for the season. Playing county cricket has always been a goal of mine," he told the club's official website.
"I've heard great things about the playing group and coaching staff, so I can't wait to get started and help the boys push for some silverware."
Latham has contributed 1,249 runs for the Kiwis from his 17 outings.
