The Fiji Islands want to reopen to fully vaccinated tourists towards the end of the year. The Ministry of Tourism is currently working with the hoteliers on a concept for the comeback of the industry, which is so important for the small state.

"To date, almost 100% of Fiji's vaccinable adult population have received their first vaccination with a COVID-19 vaccine and over 60% of Fiji's residents are fully vaccinated, which is very positive sign that Fiji is ready and prepared," explains Brent Hill, Head of Tourism Fiji.

Preparations for the restart of tourism are currently in full swing. An official announcement by the government is expected in the next few weeks. Negotiations are going on behind the scenes about the entry conditions for holidaymakers. It is a fixed rule that you can only enter the country fully vaccinated without quarantine. It remains to be seen whether additional PCR tests will be necessary. Tourism Fiji is committed to making entry as easy as possible.
