Start your visa application early
Embassy processing can take weeks, and you may need to mail your passport. Begin at least 6 weeks before your planned departure to avoid last-minute stress.
What happens at the border
1
Apply for a visa at a Fijian embassy or consulate
Contact the nearest Fijian diplomatic mission (e.g., in Tokyo, Beijing, or New Delhi) to submit your visa application. You'll need to fill out forms, provide your passport, photos, and supporting documents, and pay the fee. Processing can take several weeks, so start early.
2
Prepare your travel documents
Once your visa is approved, gather your passport (with the visa), flight tickets, hotel bookings, and proof of funds. Make photocopies or digital backups in case anything gets lost.
3
Arrive at Nadi International Airport
Most flights from Mongolia will land at Nadi International Airport (NAN). Go through immigration, where an officer will check your visa, passport, and ask about your stay. Have your documents ready in your hand luggage.
4
Clear customs and enter Fiji
After immigration, collect your bags and pass through customs. You may be asked to declare food, plants, or other items. Then you're free to start your trip.
