Yes Fiji is a safe place as it is also a tourist destination. Cost of Living is not that expensive but housing rates are expensive depending on your desired housing features and location.

Where in Fiji will you be staying and company that you will be working for? I may be able to assist you.

Hi Mr. @Martin Fullman, I will be assign in one of the retail company in Kings road, May I ask if the OFW are entitled to pay tax in Fiji, to be deducted in salary?
