Summary
Fiji's Residence Permit on Assured Income is for non-citizens who can live in Fiji using assets or assured income from outside Fiji. It is meant for people who can support themselves without relying on public funds in Fiji.
The Fiji Ministry of Immigration says new applicants must be 45 or older. The application focuses on financial self-sufficiency, offshore bank or retirement-income evidence, police reports, medical reports, and standard identity documents.
This is not a local employment route. Fiji's permit conditions restrict working, professional activity, study, research, and religious vocation unless the government gives written approval.
Eligibility
You are a stronger fit if:
- You are at least 45 years old.
- You have assets, retirement income, or other assured income outside Fiji that can support your stay.
- You can document those funds with offshore bank statements, retirement-scheme statements, or similar records.
- You do not plan to work locally in Fiji unless immigration gives written approval.
- You can provide police reports and medical reports.
- Any spouse or dependent included in the application can provide the required identity, relationship, police, and medical documents.
The Ministry can ask for extra documents when it needs to verify an application. Older Fiji mission pages also describe deposit, health-insurance, and local-bank-account expectations, so applicants should confirm the current checklist with the Ministry or the relevant Fiji mission before filing.
What This Route Allows
This route can allow you to live in Fiji if you can support yourself through retirement income, passive income, savings, or other accepted funds. It is generally designed for people who will not rely on local employment.
What This Route Is Not
This is not a work visa. These routes usually focus on proving stable support from outside local employment and may restrict work in the country.
Next Steps
- Confirm you meet the age requirement.
- Gather evidence of offshore assets, pension income, retirement-account income, or other assured income.
- Prepare passport, arrival-stamp, photo, police-report, and medical-report documents.
- If you have a spouse or dependent children, prepare their identity, relationship, police, and medical documents.
- Complete the residence permit application and follow the Ministry's current fee and bond instructions.
- Wait for the Ministry's decision and any request for additional documents.
