Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Visa application Visa required | You need a visa before traveling to Fiji. Apply online at the Fiji Immigration Department portal. Processing takes 3–5 business days, and you'll receive an approval letter via email — print it and carry it with your passport.Apply for visa | Required |
| Valid passport Must be valid for at least 6 months beyond departure | Your passport must have at least 6 months of validity remaining from your departure date from Fiji. Airlines check this at check-in — if your passport expires sooner, you'll be denied boarding. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Required for entry | Immigration officers at Nadi Airport always ask for a confirmed onward or return ticket. Have a printed copy or show it on your phone. Without one, you'll be refused entry and sent back on the next flight. | Required |
| Proof of accommodation Recommended | Have a hotel booking or an invitation letter from your host ready. Officers rarely ask for it, but if they do and you have nothing, they may deny entry. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Recommended | Carry evidence of sufficient funds — around 500 FJD per day or a credit card statement. Immigration may ask to see it if you look like you're traveling on a shoestring. | Recommended |
Apply well in advance
Visa processing can take up to 15 working days, and embassy appointments may be limited. Start the process at least 4 weeks before your trip.
Biosecurity is strict
Fiji has very strict biosecurity laws. Declare all food, plants, seeds, and animal products on your arrival card. Fines for undeclared items can be steep.
What happens at the border
1
Apply for a visa at a Fijian embassy
Locate the nearest Fijian embassy or consulate (e.g., in Bangkok, Tokyo, or Canberra). Submit your completed application form, passport, photos, and supporting documents. Pay the visa fee. Processing can take 5–15 working days.
2
Receive your visa approval
Once approved, the embassy will stamp or attach a visa sticker in your passport. Check that all details (name, dates) are correct before you travel.
3
Arrive at Nadi International Airport
Most flights from Cambodia arrive at Nadi International Airport (NAN). Go to the 'Foreign Passports' queue. Present your passport with the visa sticker, your return ticket, and accommodation confirmation. The officer may ask about your plans — answer clearly.

Collect your luggage and exit
After immigration, collect your bags from the carousel and proceed through customs. Declare any food, plants, or animal products — Fiji has strict biosecurity rules.
