At
this point in time, Visa Genie will not be to assist you in getting a Nauru
visa, no matter it is for business, tourism, or other related activities. But
we will provide you the steps you should follow to get a Nauru visa.
Nauru visa requirements
In order to obtain all Nauru visas, including the ones for media personals, an email request to enter Nauru should be sent to Nauru immigration department.
Please note that this email should be sent directly to Mr Rajeev Keerthiyil, director of the immigration office in Nauru. The email id of Rajeev Keerthiyil is rajeev.keerthiyil@naurugov.nr or rajeevnauruimmigration@gmail.com.
Please find below the documents that should be submitted to obtain a Nauru visa.
- The scanned copy of the applicant’s passport should be submitted. While submitting the passport, please make sure that it has a minimum validity of three months, and adequate blank pages for stamping. If the passport does not meet these criteria, it is highly recommended to renew it before submitting the application.
- An employment letter from the applicant’s UK employer should be submitted. This letter should state the nature and purpose of the foreign national’s Nauru visit. This employment letter written in the company’s letterhead should be signed, and it should state that a leave has been granted to the traveler, and he or she will return to work after completing the Nauru trip. If you are self-employed, you can submit copy of business license or tax return. Retired travelers can submit proof of retirement funds.
- It would be great if you can submit documents that show the proof and purpose of the visit, along with onward/return flight ticket proof.
- The visa application form to get a Nauru visa should be completed without any errors. You can contact the nearest Nauru embassy for further details.
Note: For media application visa, the visa application fee will be USD 550.
Once you arrive at the Nauru airport, immigration officials will collect your passport for processing, and it will be returned later in the day or on the following morning.
UK Emergency Travel Documents are accepted for entry to and exit from Nauru. It is always recommended to consult the immigration authority in Nauru to confirm this before traveling, as there is no British High Commission in Nauru to issue replacement travel documents.
Safety in Nauru
Even though there are no records of recent terrorist attacks in Nauru, the possibility of an attack cannot be ruled out.
As the possibility of terrorist attacks against UK citizens has literally heightened in the recent years, all British citizens visiting Nauru, or any other foreign countries should be more vigilant.
