Fiji Visa for Indians: Rules, Fees & Documents (2026)

Do Indians need a visa for Fiji?

No. Indian passport holders do not need a visa for a holiday in Fiji. A free visitor permit is issued on arrival at Nadi International Airport for up to four months, as long as you meet the entry conditions. For most Indian travellers, the harder part of a Fiji trip is not Fiji's paperwork but the transit country on the way.

What you need on arrival

1. A passport valid for at least six months beyond your intended stay.
2. A confirmed return or onward ticket.
3. Hotel or resort bookings, or the address of the people you are staying with.
4. Enough money for the stay, shown as a card, cash or bank statement.
5. A completed arrival card, handed to immigration with your passport.

That is it. Immigration stamps the permit, and you collect your bags and clear biosecurity.

The transit question

There are no direct flights from India to Fiji. Common routings connect through Singapore, Hong Kong, Sydney or Auckland.

• Australia and New Zealand have their own transit rules for Indian passport holders, and a transit visa may be needed even for a same-day connection. Check before you book, and apply well ahead if required.
• Singapore allows airside transit without a visa if you stay in the transit area and your bags are checked through.
• Hong Kong also allows airside transit; leaving the airport needs pre-arrival registration for Indians.

Routing through Singapore or Hong Kong usually means fewer forms.

What immigration actually checks

Officers at Nadi check your return ticket and where you are staying. Families visiting relatives, common given Fiji's large Indo-Fijian community, should carry the host's full address and phone number. Fiji has strict biosecurity rules: declare food, seeds, plants, wooden items and anything made from animal products, or risk a fine.

Tips for families and seniors

• Children need their own passports and the same documents as adults.
• Journeys run 18 hours or more door to door. Break the trip with a night in Singapore or Hong Kong for older travellers.
• Resort islands in the Mamanuca and Yasawa groups are reached by boat or seaplane from Nadi, so add a buffer day before your flight home.
• Working, volunteering or paid performances need a separate permit; the visitor permit is for holidays and family visits only.
• To stay beyond four months, apply to Fiji's Immigration Department before the permit expires.
