Residence permit on assured income

An income-assured residence permit may be granted to a person who has assets outside the Fiji Islands that can be realized at the request of the Director of Immigration. Permits in this category are usually issued to individuals who are unlikely to wish to work in the Fiji Islands. They can invest in any business approved by the Fiji Islands Trade and Investment Bureau.

The Policy for Residence Permit with Guaranteed Income is set out below:

• the principal applicant must be at least 45 years old and have health insurance;
• the principal applicant must have a guaranteed income and must not be seeking employment in the Fiji Islands;
• upon approval of the application, the principal applicant must deposit the amount of USD 100,000.00 into a resident's local bank account;
• if the main applicant has purchased real estate in the Fiji Islands, the F$100,000.00 may be waived, but documentary evidence of the purchase and value of the real estate is required;
• an additional F$30,000.00 for a family of two (2) or F$40,000.00 for a family of up to five (5) members must be deposited annually into the resident's local bank account; and
• the permit holder must obtain permission from the Department of Immigration for any repatriation of funds from the country before the application will be considered by the Reserve Bank of Fiji.
