Open Signed Fiji Arrival CardDetails that can change your plans
A visa and entry permission are separate
Fiji issues a Visitor Permit during immigration clearance. Visa-exempt passport holders can travel without a pre-entry visa; other passport holders must obtain a visa first and receive a Visitor Permit only if they meet the entry conditions. Visa approval does not guarantee admission.
Official guidanceA holiday Visitor Permit does not allow work
Fiji says a holiday Visitor Permit cannot be used to look for employment or work. Arrange a permit that matches any work, study or residence plans before travel.
If you need more time in Fiji
An eligible holiday Visitor Permit may be extended once for two months while it remains valid. Fiji currently lists a FJD 93 extension fee; business visitors and some 30-day permit categories are excluded. Apply through the official procedure before the current permission expires.
