The 26-year-old forward, who has vast experience playing throughout Asia, joins the team for internationals against China on November 15 and Thailand on November 19 (NZ time).
All Whites coach Anthony Hudson said that Vincent was among a number of players on the radar and the opportunity has arisen for him to dip his toes into the national team environment.
“Kayne is a player we have known about for a while who has recently signed to play in the Premier League in Thailand with a top rating club,” Hudson said.
“We are taking advantage of the fact he is playing there to add him to our squad. We want to see more of him and the best way to do that is to immerse him into our squad and our system for this tour.”
The former national under-20 representative played for several Auckland clubs including Waitakere United and was involved their campaign in the FIFA Club World Cup in 2008.
He has enjoyed widespread playing experience throughout Asia, including the J-League in Japan, the I-League in India, the Singapore Premier League as well as off-season stints with Melbourne Knights in the Victorian league.
Vincent took up a contract in the Thailand Premier League this year and has been signed by top club Buriram United for 2015. Buriram United have won the Thailand Premier League title in three of the last four years.
The All Whites leave for their tour on Monday.
