Travel advice for this country

Entry requirements

Visas

 
Entry visas are not required for visits of up to four months. As a visitor you must have an onward or return ticket and a valid visa for the next country of disembarkation. If you are visiting Fiji on business you will be granted a stay for 14 days on arrival.

A visa is required for visits of longer than 4 months. Applications for visas can be made at the Fiji High Commission in London.

Those entering Fiji by boat are subject to the same visa requirements as those travelling to Fiji by plane.  Yachts can only enter through Suva, Lautoka, Savusavu and Levuka.

Passport validity

 
All passports must be valid for a minimum period of six months upon arrival.

Importing meat or dairy products


Fiji customs enforce strict quarantine regulations and x-ray all in-bound luggage at Nadi airport. Most perishable foodstuffs will be confiscated on arrival, unless arriving from a country with quarantine agreements with Fiji.

Importing or exporting currency


Visitors and residents are required to declare currency amounts in excess of FJ10,000 (£3,400 approx).

Travelling with children


Single parents or other adults travelling alone with children should be aware that some countries require documentary evidence of parental responsibility before allowing lone parents to enter the country or, in some cases, before permitting the children to leave the country.

In the case of Fiji, no such documentation is required for visitors.  But it is required for those applying for work and/or residency permits.  For further information contact the Fiji High Commission in London.
