Can you bring snus and nicotine pouches to Fiji?

Personal import: UnclearVerified 4 September 2026

We found no clear customs rule on bringing snus or nicotine pouches into Fiji. General tobacco allowance for arrivals aged 18+: cigarettes, cigars and other tobacco products combined not exceeding 200 g net weight, for personal use only. Smokeless tobacco (snus) is separately banned for sale, so it is unclear whether this general allowance extends to it. Selling nicotine pouches in Fiji is unregulated (sold openly) and selling tobacco snus is banned.
