Fiji Corporate Income Tax Framework & FRCS Guidelines

Standard Corporate Tax (25%)

In the Fiji National Budget 2023–2024, the corporate tax rate for standard incorporated resident companies was reinstated to 25.0% on net assessable profits. Resident companies are taxed on worldwide income, while foreign companies are taxed solely on Fiji-sourced income.

South Pacific Stock Exchange (SPX) Incentive

Companies that list on the South Pacific Stock Exchange (SPX) benefit from a preferential tax rate of 20.0% (and potentially 15% for new listings with significant local equity distribution). This policy fosters local capital market participation and transparent corporate governance.

Advance Provisional Tax Installments

Under the Income Tax Act, corporate entities do not pay all taxes at the end of the fiscal year. Instead, they must submit three advance provisional tax installments equal to 33.3% of their projected tax liability, payable by the final day of the 6th month, 9th month, and 12th month of the financial year.

Foreign Branch Taxation (30%)

Non-resident entities conducting business in Fiji through a branch or permanent establishment face a statutory 30.0% corporate income tax rate. Moreover, branch remittance tax or non-resident withholding taxes may apply when earnings are repatriated abroad.
