Henry's position as coach became tenuous when New Zealand crashed out of the World Cup following a 20-18 quarter-final defeat to France.
The 61-year-old former Wales coach has not declared whether he will re-apply for the role but has until November 26 to make a decision on his future.
"The New Zealand Rugby Union board have decided they will invite applications for the position of All Blacks coach," a statement read.
During Henry's four years in charge, the All Blacks were unbeaten on home soil and had 42 wins from 48 matches.
Henry insists he and his assistants, Wayne Smith and Steve Hansen, will take time to consider their options.
"We all want what is best for New Zealand rugby and understand the board's decision to ask for applications," he told the All Blacks' official website.
"All three of us will take time to think about the next steps, and we'll have a decision on the 26th."
