Permit allowing a non-citizen to reside in Fiji with a family member who holds a valid permit, enabling family reunification.
The Special Purpose Permit to Reside with Family is a dedicated immigration category designed to allow non-citizens to live in Fiji while accompanying a family member who already holds a valid residence permit or legal status in the country. This permit facilitates family cohesion by enabling spouses, children, or other qualifying dependents to reside together in Fiji, ensuring that families do not have to remain separated during the principal applicant's stay. It is an essential mechanism for maintaining family unity for those who have established a legal basis for residence in the nation.
To be qualifying for this permit, applicants must provide documentation confirming their relationship to the principal permit holder and demonstrate that they have adequate financial support. A key requirement for this permit is the maintenance of valid health insurance for the duration of the stay, ensuring that the applicant does not become a burden on the local healthcare system. The application process involves a fee of FJD 200 and requires the submission of supporting documents to the Department of Immigration to verify the legitimacy of the family connection and the applicant's ability to reside in Fiji.
