Arrival cards and declarations: Fiji Arrival Card and Biosecurity Declaration

FJD 400,

The Biosecurity Authority of Fiji says you will be given a passenger arrival card when arriving, a legal document required by law, on which you must also state any items that need to be declared. Its laws require everyone arriving from overseas to declare all biosecurity risk goods, including food, plant, plant products, used material and animal products, and undeclared risk goods must go in the amnesty bins provided. Prohibited or declarable items found that were not declared or put in the bins bring an on-the-spot fine of FJD 400, and you are also liable for prosecution with a maximum fine of FJD 20,000, a maximum of six months' imprisonment, or both.
