What to know before you apply

THE WIDELY REPORTED FIJI DIGITAL NOMAD VISA COULD NOT BE VERIFIED ON ANY OFFICIAL FIJI GOVERNMENT PAGE, and this entry reports that rather than repeating the secondary claims. Three independent negative checks: the Ministry of Immigration's own site search for "nomad" returns "It seems we can't find what you're looking for."; the full sitemap (95 pages plus 29 posts, 124 URLs) contains no URL matching "nomad" or "remote"; and the site's own permit taxonomy — Work Permit, Business Visitor Permit, Long-Term and Short-Term Work Permit, NGO, Maritime and Fishing, Secondment, Student, Internship, Research, Permit on Assured Income, Co-Extensive Residence, Special Purpose, Visitors Permit — contains no remote-work category. We therefore have no official source for the commonly cited six-month duration, renewability, income requirement, fee or tax exemption, and record none of them. If a Fiji DNV exists, it is administered outside the Ministry of Immigration's published web estate. CLOSEST LONG-STAY ROUTES, with the figures we could verify. (1) VISITORS PERMIT — "The period issued may vary from several days up to a maximum of four months", extendable once "for a period of only two months" with "There can be no further extension after this"; "Application fees $93.00"; work is expressly barred — "A visitor's permit cannot be used to: Look for employment / Work (or hold any form of employment)". Extension processing "takes three (3) to five (5) working days when submitted over the counter at Suva." (2) AUTHORITY TO WORK OR STUDY WHILE ON A VISITORS PERMIT — "allows non-citizens to be engaged in business or investment, study, research, religious activities or do consultancy works, whilst on a visitors permit for a maximum period of twelve (12) weeks from the date of arrival"; the fee is stated only as "The requisite fee". (3) RESIDENCE PERMIT ON ASSURED INCOME — "Application must be made by persons 45 years and above", fee "$650.05" for both new applications and extensions, 21 working days; the only financial test published is that the applicant must have "assets outside the Fiji Islands at his/her disposal of an amount sufficient to ensure that he/she will not become a charge on public funds whilst residing in Fiji", with no figure. Dependants "may apply for co-extensive permits to reside with the principal applicant." CURRENCY CAVEAT: neither the permit pages nor the 2025 fee schedule PDF prints a currency code; the amounts are Fiji Immigration domestic fees and are understood to be Fijian dollars, but that is inference, not a published statement.

What it means for your tax days

A visa is permission to stay; tax residency follows the days you actually spend. Check Fiji's tax authority for the day test that applies to you — and count the days either way.

Does a digital nomad visa in Fiji make you tax resident?

A visa and tax residency are different things: the visa lets you stay, the tax rules follow the days you actually spend. Check Fiji's tax authority for the day test that applies to you.

How does Stretch help with the Fiji stay?

Log the day you land and Stretch counts the days against the permission you are on, shows the date you must be out, and reminds you at 14, 7, 3 and 1 days. It also tallies the days that count towards tax residency, so the 183-day question answers itself. The counting and the alerts are free, forever.

Fiji, the rest of it

Stretch is a tracker, not legal advice, and this is not tax advice. Visa and tax rules change and are applied by the authority, not by an app — every figure here shows its source and the date we checked it. Checked 2026-08-18; confirm on the official page before you apply or file.
