Listed ordinary passports: Fiji visa exemption with Visitor Permit on arrival
Holders of the listed ordinary national passports are exempt from obtaining a Fiji visa before travel and may be issued a Visitor Permit on immigration clearance if entry requirements are met.
- Visa exemption is not a visa on arrival. Fiji Immigration calls the document issued at immigration clearance a Visitor Permit; it is issued on arrival only if entry requirements are met.
- For the ordinary visitor route, Fiji Immigration describes holiday, recreational activity, visiting relatives or friends, conferences or meetings, and onward transit among the stated visitor purposes. A Visitor Permit cannot be used to seek employment or work.
- The Visitor Permit period may range from several days up to four months. A holiday visitor may seek one extension of up to two months before expiry; the stated exceptions to extension include business visitor permits and students or relatives on 30-day visitor permits.
- At clearance, travellers must meet current requirements including a valid foreign passport, return ticket, completed Arrival Card, confirmed Fiji address, sufficient funds, and any required fees. Fiji immigration officers retain admission and permit-period discretion.
- Medical-treatment visitors and yacht owners or carrier crew must apply for their permits before arrival. This policy does not establish residence, employment, diplomatic, official, special-document, refugee, or alien-travel-document treatment.
- Transit is separate: Fiji Immigration says a traveller transiting Fiji to another destination within 72 hours after entry needs a transit visa before arrival, with onward ticket and final-destination approval evidence.
