The government has reviewed the policy on residence

insurance;
- The principal applicant
should have an assured income and should not
seek employment in the Fiji Islands;
- The principal applicant
must deposit a sum of $ 100,000,00 in a resident
account of a local bank upon approval of the
application;
- If the principal applicant
has purchased a property in the Fiji Islands,
the sum of F$100,000.00 may be waived, however,
documentary proof of the purchase and value
of property 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 in the resident account of a local
bank; and
- The permit holder must
obtain clearance from the Immigration Department
for any repatriation of funds out of the country
before the application is considered by the
Reserve Bank of Fiji.
The new policy takes effect
immediately and will also apply to applications
already received but not processed.
