Bulgarian passport holders can visit Fiji without a visa for up to 120 days. This policy is in effect for 2026. Just make sure your passport is valid for at least 6 months from your arrival date and you have a return or onward ticket.
Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for at least 6 months beyond your stay | Your Bulgarian passport needs at least 6 months of validity beyond your intended departure from Fiji. Airlines check this at check-in — if your passport expires sooner, you will be denied boarding. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Fiji | Immigration officers routinely ask for a confirmed onward or return ticket. A flight booking out of Fiji within your 120-day visa-free window satisfies this requirement. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | Have a printed or digital hotel reservation, hostel booking, or a letter of invitation from your host in Fiji. Officers rarely ask, but having it ready avoids delays. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Show you can support yourself during your stay | Carry a bank statement or credit card showing access to at least FJD 1,000 (approx. €420) per week of your stay. Immigration may ask to see it at the counter. | Recommended |
