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 validity from your departure date from Fiji. Carry a photocopy of the bio page — some hotels ask for it during check-in. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Fiji | Immigration officers at Nadi Airport check for an onward or return ticket before they stamp you in. A printed itinerary or e-ticket works — have it ready with your passport. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | Have your first night's hotel confirmation or a letter from your host ready. Officers rarely ask, but if you arrive without a plan they may question your stay. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Bank statement or cash | Carry a bank statement or credit card showing you can cover your stay. There's no fixed minimum, but having at least FJD 500 ($220 USD) in cash or card is a safe bet. | Recommended |
Passport validity counts from arrival
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the day you land in Fiji, not from your departure date. Double-check before you fly.
No extension available
The 120-day visa-free stay is not extendable. Plan your departure accordingly to avoid overstaying penalties.
