For any vehicle to be registered in the Fiji Islands the owner or the person presenting the vehicle must produce

• a copy of the certificate of the relevant customs entry
• a copy of the bill of lading
• a completed First Registration form (click > here < to download this form)

If the vehicle owner is not a driver licence holder then we can accept the following as proper ID:

• Overseas driver licence
• original birth certificate
• original passport

Self Imported Vehicles

Since these types of vehicles have been registered in another country, we need to have the cancellation certificate from the previous country of registration. There should be a translated version if the cancellation certificate is not in English. The vehicle cannot be transferred for the next 5 years to another person.

How to register a self imported vehicle

You will need to fill a first registration form (click > here < to download this form). In the first registration you are required to fill in all the particulars about the vehicle including the engine and chassis. This document can be presented to a Insurance company and they will prepare a Third Party Policy (TPP). The TPP should be presented to the Licensing office and a permission to drive will be given to drive the vehicle from the wharf to your residence or to LTA office for registration. The fee is $7.00 for each trip.

Left Hand Drive Vehicles

Left hand drive vehicles are a restricted commodity in Fiji now.

Exemptions are only granted for Diplomatic vehicles to be conditionally registered and must be exported out of the country upon expiry of the diplomats attachment.
