The Fiji Passenger Arrival Card.
| Form | Fiji Passenger Arrival Card |
|---|---|

Arrival forms are free or nearly so on the official site. Sites that charge to “process” one are private services.
What Fiji checks.
- Before you go. None for visa-exempt nationals: a visitor permit is issued on arrival. Non-exempt nationals need a visitor visa approved before travel (online through IMMI HUB).
- Your passport. Valid at least 6 months beyond the intended stay (Fiji Immigration). FCDO says 6 months after arrival and US State Dept 6 months after departure; use 6 months past your planned departure.
- Onward ticket. Required: a confirmed return or onward ticket; one-way tickets are not accepted. If travelling on to a country that requires a visa, carry that visa too.
- Money for the stay. You must have enough money for the whole stay and may be asked to show it; the Fiji MFA lists a copy of your latest bank statement among the documents for visa-exempt visitors.
- Travel insurance. Not listed as an entry requirement by Fiji Immigration, FCDO or US State Dept.
- Also. Visitor permit on arrival is for up to 4 months (the officer may grant less). It can be extended once by up to 2 months, to a maximum of 6 months, if you apply and pay before it expires. Business Visitor Permits (14 or 21 days) cannot be extended.
- Also. Business visits need a Business Visitor Permit (FCDO: valid 21 days).

How to spot a copycat visa site.
- Check the address. Fiji’s official link on this page goes to immihub.immigration.gov.fj. Look-alike sites use similar names and flags.
- Compare the fee. If the price is far above the government fee, you’re paying a private service. It should say so plainly.
- Ignore “fast-track” upsells. Nobody outside the government can speed up or promise a decision.
