Nauru passport holders can get a visa on arrival in Palau. There is nothing to apply for in advance — the visa is issued at the airport or land border after you pay the fee. Bring cash in a major currency, a passport valid for at least six months, a return ticket and the address of your first night's accommodation, and expect a queue at busy airports.
The main option is the Tourist visa (issued on arrival).
Whatever your visa status, Palau applies the same entry conditions to every traveller:
Palau lets 34 passports in without a visa, offers a visa on arrival to 162 and requires an embassy visa from 2. Nauru citizens are treated the same way as Australia, Fiji, Kiribati, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea. Overall the Nauru passport ranks #115 in the world with 43 visa-free destinations.
