Status: Visa Required
For Fiji passport holders (Fijian nationality).
Fijian passport holders should arrange a UAE entry permit or tourist visa before travelling. Applications can be completed online without an embassy appointment.
This passport does not appear on the UAE's widely published visa-free or visa-on-arrival lists, so the working assumption is that a UAE entry permit or tourist visa should be arranged before travelling. This record has been compiled from published UAE government visa guidance rather than confirmed individually with UAE immigration for every case, so treat it as a starting point and confirm your own eligibility before booking.

Passport nationality vs country of residence
UAE visa requirements are generally based on your passport nationality rather than the country you live in. Certain exemptions, visa-on-arrival arrangements or simplified routes may also apply depending on additional circumstances — for example GCC residency, a valid US, UK, EU, Canadian, Australian or Japanese residence permit or visa, an existing UAE entry record, or travel on a diplomatic or official passport. If you hold more than one passport, the requirements follow the passport you actually travel on.
