Fiji Visa Cost Calculator

Fiji prices its single-entry tourist entry at no consular charge, covering tourism, family visits and short unpaid business meetings. Multi-entry for Fiji suits anyone whose trip is really two trips — one border hop in the middle changes the logistics, not the fee. Business entry is documented differently rather than priced differently: expect to attach an invitation letter from your Fiji host company, with no consular fee due.

Transit is the effortless tier: a Fiji layover of 24–72 hours usually needs no visa at all under visa-free transit rules — check your nationality's window. Check the official Fiji portal first: where entry is fee-exempt, only third-party intermediaries charge — and they are optional for most nationalities.

Four inputs drive a Fiji application: a passport valid six months beyond your stay, one compliant photo, proof of accommodation, and evidence you can fund the trip. Where you submit depends on the route: eVisa/ETA applicants for Fiji upload documents to the official portal, while visa-free travellers simply carry passport and accommodation proof to immigration. Payment timing is one step you can skip — Fiji's fee-exempt entry means the only receipts belong to photos and, where one exists, transport to an application centre.

Some Fiji missions add a biometric appointment; if yours does, book it the day you file, because appointment queues usually outlast processing queues. Apply as soon as flights are provable — Fiji issues decisions against documents, and a complete early file is the cheapest insurance there is.

Check the passport before anything else: under six months' validity or a full page count and Fiji returns the application unprocessed. One photo on a white background, recent, taken to standard passport specification — Fiji enforces this more strictly than most. Show roughly $50–100 USD per day of stay in bank statements — for a 10-day Fiji trip that means $500–1,000 visible and recent.

A booked (not necessarily paid) return ticket and accommodation covering every night in Fiji complete the core file. Business applicants add the Fiji host company's invitation; transit applicants add the confirmed onward ticket — those two categories fail on missing paperwork more than fee errors.

The standard Fiji decision typically lands within 5–15 business days, and seasonal backlogs push it to the top of that band. Express handling compresses the wait to 1–3 business days for Fiji — and because entry is fee-exempt, the upgrade buys speed only, never a surcharge.

Most Fiji refusals trace to fixable defects: an expiring passport, thin bank statements, or accommodation that stops a night short of the return flight. Fix-then-refile is the normal path after a Fiji denial; the fee is due again, so get the file right the second time. eVisa decisions for Fiji often arrive inside 72 hours, making it the de facto express lane at standard price where your nationality qualifies.
