The rest of the trip for a Nigerian passport, from the arrival form to customs and travelling with children: Fiji entry requirements.
The details for a Nigerian passport.
Listed ('Nigeria') on the Fiji Ministry of Foreign Affairs visa-exempt list (dated 20 Sep 2023, page updated 18 Nov 2024) and the identical Fiji High Commission Wellington list, read 11 Oct 2026. The Fiji High Commission Canberra page shows 'Moldova' twice in its Africa tab, the second with a Nigeria flag image, so Nigeria appears to be mislabelled there rather than removed. Corrects the earlier secondary-source basis. Visitor permit for up to 4 months issued on arrival (the officer may grant less); extension on application and payment of a fee for up to 2 more months (max 6). Need: passport valid at least 6 months (Fiji MFA: from date of entry; Fiji Immigration: beyond the stay, so use 6 months past departure), confirmed return/onward ticket, confirmed accommodation, a copy of your latest bank statement, and a visa for your next country if it needs one. The Ministry of Immigration's own list page still shows only its Americas tab to automated readers; the Fiji MFA and High Commission lists were used instead.
How long it must be valid.
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.
