Technically, working on a visitor visa — even remotely for an overseas employer — is not explicitly authorised. The Digital Nomad Visa launched in 2024 provides a legal pathway.

After holding a valid residence permit for 5+ continuous years, you can apply for permanent residence. Requirements include good character, financial self-sufficiency, and basic integration. Fiji also offers PR through significant investment (FJD 250,000+). Dual citizenship is permitted since Fiji's 2013 constitution.
Yes, but only freehold land (~8% of total). Most land is communal iTaukei land available only on leasehold. Foreigners buying freehold property valued over FJD 250,000 do not need government approval; under that threshold, approval from the Ministry of Lands is required. Always use a local lawyer.
Leasehold is common and generally secure, but lease renewal is not automatic. The iTLTB can decline renewal, particularly if the land is wanted for communal use. Choose leases with long remaining terms (50+ years) and research renewal history in the area before committing.
