    I did this back in July. It's pretty straightforward and well worth doing. Some tips:

    • They might play dumb and try to get you to sign up to one of the expensive tourist plans. Just insist you want the SIM card ONLY.
    • Once your 24 hrs (or 2GB) is used up, go for a local data plan (see *555#). Prices are very reasonable (and in FJD).
    • Prior to purchasing a plan (by dialing *555#), I used this link to add balance to my account.

      MVP!

      Above sums it up well. Local recharge is readily available anffor F20$ gives you sufficient data. If you are making use of local calling tgen go Vodafone. If data then Digicel may give more data.

  • djkelly69 on 20/09/2023 - 12:33

    Digicel also has a storefront at arrivals where you could get a free sim as well. Can't recall the specifics but wasn't a lot of data or time.

    tbh, with all the faffing about, I'm finding their $5/day roaming to be quite attractive

    • redfox1200 on 28/09/2023 - 15:11

      $10 a day (assuming telstra)

      • 1st-Amendment on 20/03/2024 - 13:49

        $10 a day (assuming telstra)

        $15/week on Telstra prepaid.

    • somesomebargin123 on 20/03/2024 - 13:25

      Might as well go for an esim at that point, if your phone can support it. Significantly cheaper without needing to mess around finding a store selling sims.

  • 87percent on 20/09/2023 - 14:02

    do you just need to present your passport, or do they scan it or something?

    • HomebrewFC on 20/09/2023 - 14:14

      I'm pretty sure they just document your details, but I have to admit I don't really remember.

  • corepda on 01/10/2023 - 12:41

    How to find out your number on their service? Not sure what's my number for recharge.

  • Nalar on 30/10/2023 - 19:43

    Just a tip, they will ask you how long you are staying in Fiji, just say overnight.

    Digicell refused me a sim when I said a week, so I went to voda who still tried to put me in rip off tourist plan. He wsndt happy but he gave me the free sim and I followed Homebrew advice above and got my cheap plan. Remember when playing with credit cards you may need a text verification.

    I thought I'd add my experience. It's a lovely offer but when I've been there (twice) each time they have been out of SIM cards - so be aware of that! Nowadays I usually use an e-SIM (Airalo). Also if you are heading off to the islands, be aware that many don't have reception (for better or worse)…

    • The Wololo Wombat on 20/03/2024 - 13:32

      Worked for me :) They did scan my passport at the store.

      This comment is an advertisement. Vodafone you can get 30gb for $9 FJD = $6 Aussie. Airolo is $30 USD ($45 AUD) for 5gb.

        I'm not associated with airalo or any other sim company. It's good to know you can get cheaper elsewhere, just reporting what I used when I went there.

    Tried getting this when I landed on the 8th of March, and they simply refused that they had anything like this. I showed them on the website, but they said only with a $10 recharge… hope others have a better result.

    • redfox1200 on 20/03/2024 - 15:45

      had a similar outcome in october last year, our plane was a bit late and they wouldn't give us any sims unless we were going to load them with money.

    • akanub on 20/03/2024 - 15:50

      Had this experience with Digicel funnily enough who straight up refused. Vodafone was reluctant to give the sims without any upfront recharge but when I showed them the website they eventually gave them to us.

    • Nalar on 20/03/2024 - 17:21

      This is because they dont make any commission from you so they dont want to help you. Guarantee they have the sims they are just trying to get you to either give up and go away or give up and buy something. Kinda typical tourist B.S which you get in every country these days.

      I'm sure if you kept pushing you might get somewhere but who wants to right after a flight.

    Vodafone really sucked when I was in Fiji, I was on Taveuni island and the coverage was very sparce.

  • toby95 on 20/03/2024 - 16:42

    Anyone know if either Vodafone or Digicel offer e-sims for tourist?

  • CrazyBargainer on 18/09/2024 - 12:50

    I would say don’t bother about the free Sim.
    My parents traveled there in August and visited the store at NAN, the store staff denied giving a free SIM and offered a tourist recharge plan which was expensive. My parents bought a local SIM on their way to Hotel which was approx $17 with calls included and far more data/validity + instant activation.

  • alcadive on 18/09/2024 - 13:11

    i have since ditched my 28 degrees card, but i was in fiji in april and there is an offer for a free travel esim which included fiji.
    it wasnt a huge allowance but it got me thru

  • Carbon Door on 18/09/2024 - 13:40

    I tried getting this sim last time in June, they said they didn't have any tourist sims left and refused to give me anything, both Digicel and Vodafone, however they will happily take your money and load up a different sim. one of the tourist option sims.

  • master yi on 18/09/2024 - 14:16

    I suggest that you avoid the airport stalls as they only sell tourist sims which are way more expensive than the local price.

    I highly recommended using Digicel as it is way faster than Vodafone at least in the cbd.

    U could get 150GB for around 17aud which lasts for 30days. For more plans you can click on the link below.
