About This Visa
Indian ordinary-passport holders use a visitor permit on arrival. Tuvalu’s Immigration Regulations 2014 (hosted by the Permanent Mission to the UN) let the Principal Immigration Officer issue a visitor permit for up to 30 days.
Schedule 1 nationalities pay no fee. India is not on that list, so the fee is AUD 100 unless the Minister waives it. Conditions: no employment or business, no study, no proselytising, unless a special endorsement is issued (extra AUD 100 for a business endorsement in the same regulation).
Carry return/onward ticket and funds. Contact: Principal Immigration Officer, Immigration Division, Office of the Prime Minister, Vaiaku.
