What Fiji buys
The chapter Fiji imports most is mineral fuels, at 694 million USD in 2025, followed by machinery and mechanical appliances (287 million USD) and electrical machinery and equipment and parts thereof (260 million USD). Demand is concentrated: the first chapter accounts for more than a quarter of what the table adds up to, so volumes fall away quickly outside it.
The table ranks two-digit chapters, which are broad product families. To judge whether this market fits you, you need to go down to your six-digit heading: within one chapter sit products with very different demand, duties and requirements. If you do not know yours, look it up in the HS Code finder.
Three things are worth checking before you quote, and none can be assumed: the duty applied to your heading, whether a preferential agreement between the European Union and Fiji lowers it, and which certificates or controls your product faces on arrival. All three are looked up by heading and country in Access to Markets, the European Commission's official tool.
Frequently asked questions
What does Fiji import?
In 2025, its largest imports by chapter were mineral fuels, machinery and mechanical appliances and electrical machinery and equipment and parts thereof. The table on this page lists the top 15 with the reported figure for each, according to UN Comtrade.
What duty will I pay?
It depends on your tariff heading and on the agreement in force, not on the country in the abstract: two products in the same chapter can pay different rates. Look it up heading by heading in Access to Markets, with Spain as origin and Fiji as destination.
Where do I start if I do not have a tariff heading?
By finding it: it is the field the duty, the entry requirements and the trade statistics all hang from. The first six digits are common to every country applying the Harmonized System. You can search for yours in the HS Code finder and confirm it with your customs agent, who is the one answerable for the classification.
Does this data mean there is demand for my product?
It means that chapter enters the country, and in what volume, which is the first filter. It does not say at what price, through which channel or against which competitors, and those three decide whether the deal works. The figure is from 2025: countries report with a lag, so it is for comparing markets against each other, not for forecasting next month.
