How it works

Travel Insurance in Fiji

Travel insurance is essential wherever you go — medical costs can be high and evacuation is expensive. EKTA covers medical, cancellation, baggage and evacuation.

Makutet recommends

For most visitors to Fiji, we recommend EKTA for short trips — it wraps medical, cancellation and baggage cover into one simple plan. SafetyWing is better for stays longer than a month.

Quick facts

  • Visa:Check entry requirements for your nationality before you book.

Things to avoid

  • Scooter exclusionsMany policies exclude motorcycle and scooter riding unless you have a valid licence.
  • Undeclared conditionsPre-existing conditions are the #1 reason travel insurance claims are denied.

Local tips

  • Carry a small amount of local cash on arrival for taxis, tips and small vendors.
  • Download offline maps in Google Maps before you leave — data can be patchy on arrival.
  • Keep digital and physical copies of your passport, visa and insurance separated from the originals.
  • Tell your bank you're travelling to avoid card blocks.

When to Buy Insurance

Timing and what to check

Buy cover the day you book your flights — cancellation protection starts immediately, before any disruption.
Check the medical cover limit — at least £1 million / €1 million for medical and evacuation combined.
Declare pre-existing conditions — most providers offer a medical screening add-on.
Keep digital and printed copies of your policy and emergency number separately.
For trips over 30 days, monthly nomad cover (SafetyWing) is usually cheaper than extending a single-trip policy.

Destination Considerations

USA, Canada & Japan

Medical costs are the highest in the world — ensure your policy covers at least £2 million for medical and evacuation.

Europe (Schengen)

EHIC/GHIC covers EU residents for emergency care — but travel insurance still covers cancellation, baggage and repatriation.

Southeast Asia

Healthcare is affordable but standards vary outside cities. Ensure evacuation cover for remote areas and islands.

Remote / expedition travel

Standard policies often exclude altitude, scuba or remote areas — declare your activities, or buy a specialist policy.

Policy Tips

Book with your flights — cancellation cover starts the moment you buy, before any disruption.
Check medical limits — aim for £1M+ medical and evacuation, more for the USA and remote areas.
Declare everything — pre-existing conditions and adventure activities — gaps invalidate claims.
Save your policy number — store the 24/7 emergency line in your phone and keep a printed copy.
