FIJI IS OPEN!

 

As a nation with over 90 percent adult population vaccinated with access to boosters, and low test positivity rates, Fiji is now taking the next step in its economic recovery. In accordance with the 2021-2022 Special Revised Budget, Effective 7 April 2022, fully-vaccinated visitors with a negative COVID-19 test entering Fiji, will no longer be required to book a minimum 3-night stay at a Care Fiji Commitment (CFC) Certified hotel.

Instead, they only require a pre-paid Rapid Antigen Test (RAT), to be administered within 48 to 72 hours of arrival into Fiji, proof of vaccination and either a Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) test taken no more than 2 calendar days prior to the scheduled day of departure OR RAT taken no more than 24 hours prior.

In terms of Insurance, visitors with existing insurance must present evidence of the cover not excluding COVID-19. All foreign passport holders (except valid permit holders who provide a supporting letter from sponsor/employer to meet all COVID related costs, including isolation if required) must have medical travel insurance, with international coverage that covers COVID-19 before travelling. Travellers may opt for FijiCare COVID-19 travel insurance.

With over 70 countries declared Travel Partners as of 18 March 2022 – Fiji will now remove its Travel Partner classification – and is open to anyone who meets the entry requirements. https://www.mcttt.gov.fj/home/traveltofiji/international-travel/

In support of the Fijian Government’s continuous efforts to attract Audio Visual Productions to Fiji, Film Fiji welcomes applications for film and television permits. Productions will need to adopt protocols consistent with their specific needs and situations to help protect the health and safety of all employees, cast, crew, and independent contractors.
