Exercise caution in Fiji due to the unresolved political situation and deterioration in the rule of law.

Pay close attention to your personal security and monitor international media for information about possible new safety or security risks.

In April 2009 Fiji’s President abrogated the Constitution and appointed a new interim government. He has also decreed a set of Public Emergency Regulations, which give the police and military extensive powers. These developments have increased political uncertainty in Fiji. 

You are advised  to exercise a high degree of caution in Suva due to the unresolved political situation. An outbreak of violence and civil unrest could occur without warning.

Avoid demonstrations, street rallies and public gatherings as such events could result in civil disorder.

Avoid military installations, military activity and concentrations of military personnel around Suva.

Actions taken by the military and other government organisations since the coup have undermined the protections ordinarily afforded by the rule of law and have affected the interests and welfare of Australians in some instances.

There have been reports of increases in violent crime. Expatriates and tourists have been targeted, particularly in Suva. You should maintain a high degree of personal security awareness. 

Credible threats have been made against the Australian High Commission and its staff in Suva.

The Australian Government has authorised the voluntary departure of the dependants of Australia-based staff in the Australian High Commission in Suva.

Cyclone season is November to April.
