Native land, managed by NLTB, comprises 87% of all the land in Fiji and was permanently deeded by the British Crown in the 1880’s. To put it simply, this land cannot be sold. It will forever remain as property of the landowning unit unless sold back to the State and then solely for public purpose. Native land is available for public use by lease agreement. Leases can vary from 30 years for agricultural purposes up to 99 years for most other uses (commercial, residential, etc).

Native Land is the overwhelming percentage of Fiji property (87%) and is generally available for long-term lease purposes of up to 99 years.
Leases are administrated and managed by NLTB and lease applications are provided online or at our offices.
A Lessee’s ability to renew its lease after expiration is extremely friendly and easy to renew (See Truth vs. Fiction).
Finally, due to the fact that native land involves a property lease rather than an outright purchase, this results in a highly favorable investment decision when calculating your land acquisition costs.
