Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for at least 6 months beyond your stay | Your passport needs at least 6 months of remaining validity from your date of entry into Fiji. Immigration officers at Nadi Airport check this strictly — if your passport expires sooner, they will deny boarding. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Fiji | Immigration requires a confirmed onward or return ticket before they let you through. Budget airlines flying into Nadi check this at check-in — have your booking confirmation ready on your phone or printed. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | Have your hotel reservation or a letter from your host ready. Immigration officers occasionally ask for it, especially if you arrive without a clear itinerary. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Show you can support yourself during your stay | Carry at least FJD 500 (around USD 220) in cash or have a bank statement showing available funds. Immigration may ask to see it if you look underprepared. | Recommended |
Passport validity is strictly enforced
Fiji requires your passport to be valid for at least 6 months from your date of entry. Airlines check this before boarding — if your passport expires sooner, you won't be allowed to fly.
No visa, but still need a return ticket
Even though you don't need a visa, immigration officers routinely ask for proof of onward travel. Have your return or onward ticket ready — a screenshot on your phone is fine.
What happens at the border
1
Prepare your documents before departure
Check your passport validity (6+ months from entry date), print or save your return ticket, accommodation booking, and travel insurance. Have these accessible on your phone or as hard copies.
2
Arrive at Nadi International Airport (or Suva)
Most flights from Taiwan arrive at Nadi International Airport. Follow signs to 'Immigration' after disembarking. Queue for foreign passport holders.
3
Present your passport and supporting documents
Hand over your passport and any requested documents (return ticket, accommodation). The officer will check your passport validity and stamp you in. No visa fee is charged.
4
Collect your luggage and proceed to customs
After immigration, go to baggage claim, then customs. Declare any restricted items (food, plants, large amounts of cash). You're free to leave after clearing customs.

Frequently asked questions
No, the visa-free stay is not extendable. You must leave Fiji before the 120 days are up. Overstaying can result in fines or a ban.
If you're transiting and not leaving the airport, you generally don't need a visa. But check with your airline — some require a transit visa for certain nationalities. For Taiwan passport holders, transit is usually fine without one.
You'll likely be denied boarding by the airline or refused entry at immigration. Renew your passport before traveling. Fiji strictly enforces the 6-month validity rule.
No, there is no official requirement to show proof of funds for Taiwan passport holders. However, immigration officers may ask how you'll support yourself during your stay — having a credit card or cash handy is wise.
No. The visa-free entry is for tourism, business meetings, and short visits only. For work or study, you must apply for the appropriate visa or permit before you arrive.
No vaccinations are required for entry from Taiwan. However, routine vaccines (MMR, DTP, hepatitis A/B) are recommended. Check with your doctor 4-6 weeks before travel.
No, Fiji does not require an online arrival declaration for Taiwan passport holders. You'll fill out a paper customs declaration form on the plane or at the airport.
