Fiji Island Travel Guide
Fiji Island Travel Guide: 1. There is no need to apply for an entry visa to the Republic of the Fiji Islands, but the visa on arrival must meet the following procedures: you must hold a passport valid for more than 4 months; round-trip air ticket; and proof of funds (guaranteed expenses during your stay in Fiji).
2. Women are not allowed to wear sleeveless tops with off-shoulders or skirts that are shorter than the knees.
3. No hats or sunglasses are allowed in the tribe.
4. Don't touch the head of any Fijian, including children. Fijians believe that the head is the most sacred part of a person and the place of the highest spirit.
5. In Fiji, people who know or don't know each other will use the word "BULA" to say hello. When you respond to the greeting, you can just say "BULA" with a smile. Don't make a loud noise when visiting the tribe.
6. You can send some small gifts as visiting gifts to visiting tribesmen, which is conducive to a smooth visit.
7. You must take off your shoes when you enter local people's homes, otherwise it will be a very rash behavior.
