Do I need a visa to visit Fiji?

Oct 12, 2023 • 3 min read

You can learn all about Fiji's incredible culture and history once you've arrived © opulent-images / Getty Images

Fiji is an incredible island nation with the kind of stunning beaches and vibrant culture that will make you never want to leave. But first you need to arrive, and a big part of that is figuring out whether you need a visa and how to get one if you do.

The good news is citizens of over 100 countries do not need a visa to enter Fiji for stays up to four months. This includes passport holders from Australia, New Zealand, the EU, Canada, the United States, the UK, South Africa, India, Japan, the Philippines and China. 

To enter, passports must be valid for at least six months past the date of departure from Fiji and have one blank page. Currency over FJD$10,000 must be declared on entry and exit. Travelers must also have proof of an outbound ticket as well as proof of sufficient funds to cover their stay in Fiji.

Visitor visas and requirements 

If you're not a citizen of a visa-exempt country, there are two types of visitor entry visas you can apply for – a Single Entry Visa or a Multiple Entry Visa. Both can be applied for at the Fijian Immigration Department offices in Fiji or any Fiji high commission or embassy abroad.

Before submitting your application, complete the accompanying application checklist  and bring all the relevant documents to any Fiji High Commission, Fiji Embassy or send them by post to the visa processing offices in Fiji. Visas take three working days to process upon receipt, but budget at least three weeks for follow-up questions, verification or mail delays.

A Single Entry Visa is valid for a single entry into Fiji for stays up to three months and costs FJD$95, while a Multiple Entry Visa is valid for up to 12 months. A visitor on this visa may enter multiple times, but each stay must be shorter than four months and it costs FJD$189. 

Visas are reviewed on a case-by-case basis, but most applicants seeking a visa for holiday purposes will need to provide a certified copy of their passport, two passport photos, hotel booking confirmation, a copy of their travel itinerary, proof of funds for the duration of their stay, proof of an onward ticket and potentially a letter of consent from a parent, spouse or employer. Full details for visa requirements are found on the Fiji Department of Immigration website . 

Fiji visa extensions

Travelers can extend their stay in Fiji by applying for a visa extension in Fiji at Department of Immigration offices found throughout Fiji. Most extensions are granted for an additional two months, allowing for stays of up to six months total – though you may be able to stay longer depending on your circumstances. The visa extension costs FJD$95 and all travelers who apply for an extension must show proof of an onward ticket and proof of funds to support their full stay. 

Study and work visas in Fiji

Fiji also offers visas for study and employment in Fiji, though these are issued on a case-by-case basis and visas are typically lodged with assistance from the Fiji institution or employer. Students must show proof of an acceptance letter from a Fijian university or school, proof of funds for the duration of their stay, a medical report for courses that last longer than six months and potentially a police clearance from the country of residence. 

Work visas are granted to non-Fijian citizens for workers who can show proof of a contract of employment, proof of proficiency in the English language, police clearance from the country of origin and a medical report for contracts longer than six months.

Last Updated : 29 Apr 2024

Last Updated : 29 Apr 2024 at

30 Second Summary

Indians are part of the visa-exempt countries, meaning travellers do not need a Fiji visa for Indians.

Indians can apply for a visitor permit once they enter Fiji.

Only a few documents are required; a valid passport is VERY IMPORTANT.

This visitor permit allows Indians to travel to Fiji for tourism and leisure purposes.

The visitor's permit serves as a Fiji tourist visa for Indian passport holders.

Important Information

— Fiji Visa Type

— Fiji Processing Time

— Fiji Permit Validity

— Fiji Permit Extention

Want to travel to Fiji? Guess what? No visa is required for Fiji with an Indian passport! Just pack your bags and get ready for a fantastic adventure.

For stays up to 4 months in Fiji, visa-exempt travellers are not required to apply for a visa in advance. While this doesn't eliminate paperwork entirely, Fiji doesn't require a traditional visa. Instead, upon arrival, you obtain a visitor's permit issued to you in the country. This is almost the same as a Fiji visa on arrival for Indian citizens.

The visa exemption for Fiji enables you to visit the country for sightseeing, travel, tourism, and other leisure activities.

Documents Required for Applicants from Exempted Countries

The Fiji visa requirements for Indian citizens are very simple and straightforward. Gathering these documents will not take Indians long. Indian travellers only need to provide the following:

A valid passport that does not expire within 6 months from the planned departure date from Fiji.

Onward ticket or return ticket showing the departure date from Fiji.

Provide proof of sufficient funds through a bank statement that you have enough for your trip to Fiji.

To facilitate a smooth process for Indian passport holders travelling to Fiji, in addition to the basic requirements, they may consider providing:

Proof of accommodation such as pre booked hotel reservations or a dummy hotel reservation .

A detailed itinerary of planned activities.

Proof of travel insurance covering the entire trip.

Documents explaining the purpose of the visit.

While not mandatory, these extra documents can help for a smoother visa process.

What Happens At The Immigration Counter When I Enter Fiji?

When you enter Fiji and approach the immigration counter, several steps typically occur:

Documentation Check: Upon arriving in the country, you should go to the Immigration Clearance desk at the airport. There, you'll need to submit the required documents listed above to the authorities to obtain your visitor’s permit.

Questions and Purpose of Visit: You may be asked a few questions, such as the purpose of your visit, the duration of your stay, and where you will be staying. Answer truthfully and provide any necessary supporting documents.

Permit Issuance: If everything is in order, the immigration officer will issue your visitor’s permit, officially granting you entry into Fiji. This will include the date of entry and other relevant information. You can pay the Fiji visa price for your visitor's permit.

Customs Declaration: After clearing immigration, you will proceed to the customs area. Be prepared to declare any items that need to be declared, such as certain types of goods or large amounts of currency.

Baggage Collection: You can collect your baggage from the designated area after clearing customs. Make sure to pick up your luggage and any other belongings.

Exit: Once you have collected your baggage, you are free to exit the airport and begin your stay in Fiji.

How Long Will My Visitor’s Permit Be Valid?

The visitor’s permit issued to Indian travellers upon arrival allows for a tourist stay of up to 4 months. If you desire a stay exceeding 4 months, you have the option to apply for an extension of the permit for an additional 2 months, allowing a total stay of 6 months in the country.

How Can I Extend My Visitors Permit?

To initiate this extension, you can submit an application to the immigration authorities. Here is a copy of the visa application form online to extend your visitor's permit. The Fiji permit fees are 95.10 FJD (approx. 47 to 50 USD).
