facts about buying land in fiji

Freehold Property is the only land type that can be purchased outright by non-residents. There is no timeframe on the ownership of Freehold and so, it is often regarded as the most secure tenure. Freehold property can be bought and sold freely in most areas of Fiji. Only about 8% of all land in Fiji is freehold. In Fiji freehold or land tenure is via a Torrens title land-registration system with the title guaranteed constitutionally by the State.

Seashell Beach Estate is all Freehold land. It is not located within a city or town boundary and there are no restrictions on the sale of this land to non-citizens.

As a non-citizen you can buy freehold land in most areas in Fiji. There are only restrictions on the purchase of freehold property by non-citizens in urban areas of Fiji as outlined in Fiji’s new Land Sales (Amendment) Act 2014 which prohibits the sale of freehold and crown residential property to non-citizens within the boundaries of Cities and Towns.

If purchasing vacant freehold land non-citizens are required to build a new home on the land costing no less than FJD $250,000 within 2 years of purchasing the property. You also need to register with Fiji Revenue and Customs Authority (FRCA) for tax purposes.
