Discusses pricing formula and other fees, value-added tax (VAT), etc.
Last Published: 8/5/2019

The Fiji Commerce Commission monitors competition in the market and controls the prices of basic goods, which include food items, fuel, and hardware products.  Prices of products not monitored by the Commerce Commission are determined by the market.

The Value-Added tax (VAT) is nine percent.  VAT is applicable on all imports and previously zero-rated supplies, including selected basic food items, prescribed medications, kerosene, and imported fish supplied to fish processors.  Businesses registered under the VAT legislation can claim an input tax credit in relation to VAT paid on their imports.
