Transits through Australia
We are getting lots of questions around who is allowed to transit through Australia.

Seasonal Worker Programme
Fiji is a participating country in the Australia's Government Seasonal Worker Programme. Australian employers seeking to access seasonal workers from Fiji, or other participating countries should visit the Home Affairs Seasonal Worker Programme website. Fiji citizens seeking to participate as a seasonal worker should contact the Fijian Ministry for Employment, Productivity and Industrial Relations: www.labour.gov.fj.
We strongly discourage clients engaging with agents who claim to be able to assist with lodgement or processing of these visas. If approached by an agent in relation to these visas, please advise the Australian High Commission by email: [email protected]. Please continue to check this website for any updates.
Visa and migration scams
The Australian High Commission, Fiji is aware of a scam circulating on social media and the internet announcing visa free entry to Australia for Fiji nationals. This is untrue. Australia maintains a universal visa regime whereby foreign nationals are required to obtain a visa prior to travel.
To ensure people are not stopped on departure from airports, we strongly recommend that potential travellers obtain information and assistance regarding visa applications from our Australian Visa Application Centre service provider TT Services
There have been previous incidents when scammers have targeted websites with false promises of jobs or travel to Australia. People who respond to such advertisement are then asked to pay for the Australian visa by lodging money into a bank account. No job exists and no visa application is lodged.
All Fijians should refer to the official website of the Australian High Commission, Fiji, for information relating to visas or future work opportunities. Any suspected fraud should be reported to the Fiji Police Force, the Fiji Commerce Commission or the Australian High Commission, Fiji.
Any suspected fraud should be reported to the Fiji Police Force (any Police Station or to Totogo Police Station in Suva Phone: 3311 222), the Fiji Commerce Commission (Mr Joel Abraham Phone: 3372 178 or Mobile: 9996 759).
