Guide last updated October 21, 2026. Always verify with official sources before travel.

What you need

  • Passport valid for at least 6 months beyond the date of entry.
  • Confirmed return or onward flight ticket (critical, as Tuvalu has very limited flight connections)
  • Proof of accommodation booking
  • Sufficient funds for the stay, which may be checked at the immigration counter
  • Completed arrival form provided on the flight or at the airport
  • Biometrics (photo) may be taken on arrival; fingerprinting is not standard
  • Travel health insurance strongly recommended given extremely limited medical facilities

Visa types

  • Visitor permit on arrival: single entry, valid for up to 30 days, extendable, fee around AUD 100-120
  • Business permit: requires a local sponsor or invitation, similar fee structure
  • No separate tourist e-visa system exists; all visitor entry is handled as visa/permit on arrival

Visa on arrival

  • Visa/entry permit is granted on arrival at Funafuti International Airport, the country's only international airport.
  • Present passport, confirmed return ticket, and accommodation details at the immigration counter
  • Pay the entry permit fee in AUD cash (the local currency alongside Tuvaluan dollars)
  • Processing is quick, typically done within the standard immigration queue time
  • Flights to Tuvalu are extremely limited (usually via Fiji), so confirm onward connections carefully before travel

Fees & processing time

  • Visa/permit fee: approximately AUD 100-120 (about USD 65-80), payable in cash on arrival
  • No additional VFS/BLS service fee, as there is no pre-arrival visa application system
  • Total estimated cost: USD 65-85
  • Processing time: immediate, during standard immigration clearance
  • No express option needed given the small scale of arrivals

Tips for Pakistan travelers

  • Confirm flight schedules well in advance, as Fiji Airways operates limited weekly flights to Funafuti
  • Carry sufficient AUD cash, as card payment facilities are not reliable at the airport
  • Common issues include missing onward ticket confirmation, which airlines may require even before boarding to Tuvalu
  • There is no Tuvaluan diplomatic mission accessible from Pakistan, so all entry formalities are handled on arrival
  • Extensions beyond 30 days can be requested at the Office of the Principal Immigration Officer in Funafuti
