Visa Tuvalu

Océanie · Polynésie

Two Tuvaluan state sites could be read on 2026-09-18, but neither describes a visa procedure: the official tourism portal, operated by the ministry of foreign affairs, trade, tourism, environment and labour, does not deal with visas, and the department of home affairs does not cover immigration. The immigration section of the government portal could not be reached: its domain name is not resolved. No procedure is therefore described here.

The information on this page helps prepare a case. Only the competent authority decides; always check the official source before filing an application.

Practical guide

No official portal describing a visa procedure is confirmed for this territory. No visa category, no step, no document, no visa fee and no processing time is written here: nothing of the kind was read on an official page.

What was read on 2026-09-18, on state sites of the gov.tv domain: the official tourism portal states that it is operated by the ministry of foreign affairs, trade, tourism, environment and labour, and gives as contact (688) 20840 and the address tourism@gov.tv in Vaiaku, Funafuti. Its travel information page describes the air service (three weekly flights from Fiji via Suva, one weekly connection from Tarawa), the currency used, the customs allowances for visitors over 18 and a departure tax of 30.00 AUD per person. This departure tax is not a visa fee. These pages contain no information on visas or entry permits. The site of the department of home affairs, also read, covers local government, climate, environment and culture, and does not mention immigration.

What could not be reached: the “Immigration & Customs” section of the government portal, as well as the root of that portal and the site of the department of foreign affairs, whose domain names were not resolved on 2026-09-18.

General guidance: contact the diplomatic or consular representation of Tuvalu competent for your country of residence, or the ministry named above.

What this guide does not know yet

Points the official source does not specify and which this guide therefore left blank. Ask the competent authority about them before filing an application.

The domain name www.gov.tv was not resolved on 2026-09-18 while tourism.gov.tv, homeaffairs.gov.tv and stats.gov.tv respond: a reviewer must check from another network whether the “Immigration & Customs” section of the government portal is accessible.
The address tuvaluhc.org.nz, previously listed as the high commission of Tuvalu, returns on 2026-09-18 a parking page of a New Zealand registrar: it has been removed from the leads and must not be used.
As long as no portal describing a procedure is confirmed, no visa category, no document, no fee and no processing time can be published for this territory.
The official tourism portal is operated by the ministry of foreign affairs, trade, tourism, environment and labour, but does not deal with visas: the authority that issues entry permits remains to be established on a source read.
The departure tax of 30.00 AUD read on the tourism portal must not be presented as a visa fee.
The official links offered here lead to state pages actually read but with no content on visas: a reviewer must decide whether they are useful on a destination page.
