# Fiji work visa but may have traffic offences Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea
rtapsell 15:28 UTC 22 May 2017 | Hi All, Does anyone know if I have a drink driving offence and perhaps a few speeding fines over the years will it show on my criminal record and if it does would that effect getting a Fijian work visa ?? or is it more of the case just making sure they are not major crimes that included jail time .... I have tried to search every website possible in regards to this question but nothing, obviously I dare not to ask my employer. Only sent for my criminal record today and wont receive it for a few weeks so I may be over reacting but I would greatly appreciate it if anyone has any info. Cheers R |
travoyageur 03:38 UTC 29 May 2017 | Not that I have experience with Fiji but most countries do not consider traffic offences as being a criminal matter and on that basis, I'd not expect you to have a problem with an application in that respect. | 1
