Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for the duration of your stay | Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond your intended departure date from Kiribati. Airlines check this before boarding — if your passport expires sooner, you'll be denied boarding. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of onward travel | Immigration at Bonriki International Airport asks for a confirmed onward or return ticket before they stamp you in. Budget airlines flying into Kiribati also check this at check-in — have a printed copy or a screenshot ready. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or invitation letter | Not always asked, but officers may request a hotel reservation or a letter from your host in Kiribati. Have a printed booking confirmation or a digital copy on your phone. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Sufficient money for your stay | Immigration can ask for evidence you have enough cash or credit to cover your stay. Carry a bank statement or a credit card with a reasonable limit — no fixed amount is published, but around 500 AUD per week is a safe benchmark. | Recommended |

You don't need a visa, but immigration will check your passport validity (6+ months), return ticket, and accommodation. Have these ready to avoid delays.
Extensions not available
You cannot extend your 90-day stay. Plan your trip carefully and leave before the visa-free period ends.
