Entry requirements

Passport validity is strictly enforced
Fiji requires your passport to be valid for at least 6 months from your arrival date. Airlines check this before boarding — if your passport expires sooner, you won't be allowed to fly. No exceptions.
No visa, but have your documents ready
Even though you don't need a visa, immigration officers at Nadi Airport routinely ask for return tickets and accommodation proof. Keep digital copies on your phone to avoid delays.
What happens at the border
1
Arrive at Nadi or Suva airport
Most international flights land at Nadi International Airport (NAN). Suva's airport (SUV) handles some regional flights. Follow signs to 'Immigration' — it's usually a short queue.
2
Present your passport and documents
Hand over your passport with at least 6 months validity and a blank page. The officer may ask for your return ticket and accommodation proof — have them ready on your phone or printed.
3
Receive entry stamp
The officer stamps your passport with 'Visitor Permit' valid for up to 120 days. Check the stamp before leaving the counter — confirm the date is correct.
4
Collect luggage and exit
After immigration, head to baggage claim, then customs. There's usually a green channel for nothing to declare. You're free to go.

Frequently asked questions
No, the visa-free entry is not extendable. If you want to stay longer, you'd need to leave Fiji and re-enter, but immigration may question frequent back-to-back visits. For a longer stay, apply for a proper visa at the Fiji Department of Immigration in Suva before your 120 days are up.
