[PLEASE HELP] New Caledonia and Vanuatu Visa

[sundaynight]

Hey Everyone,

My boyfriend and I will have cruise ship on May 2024 to Fiji, New Caledonia and Vanuatu. I am bit frustrated for the visa issues, For Fiji, I will be fine since my country is a part of exemption country. my biggest concern is New Caledonia and Vanuatu. As Indonesian, I have to provide stop over certificate from Cruise Ship Company to disembark in New Caledonia. However, my cruise ship company doesn't know the stop over certificate. Furthermore, For Vanuatu, It seems like I have to apply visa for disembark from the cruise. and I again Vanuatu's government does not provide specific visa for the cruise trip. As additional information, I will have cruise trip with P&O departed and returned from/to Sydney and I have organised my Travel Insurance and My passport will not be expired for the next 5 years. Does anyone have the same experience like me? Any help is really appreciated.

Welcome to Cruise Critic. I am not sure what you need to do for visas but I suggest you use an Indonesian government site to check what you will need.

In the meantime I will try and find out.

For New Caledonia, I have called VFS Global and they said that as Indonesian a part of exemption country for cruise ship, New Caledonia does not require me to have a visa. however, I should provide Stop Over Certificate from cruise company. So that I called the P&O to get stop over certificate. as the results, the customer service from P&O does not at all about it. have you ever heard about Stop Over Certificate?

For Vanuatu, I had a look already the requirement for tourist visa. Vanuatu's government website is not really helpful to apply the visa. I am located in Sydney and still finding the way to apply the visa near by here.

The ships manifest is what is hand to New Caledonia authority . Your name will be on that . Your ship ticket will have the time of arrival and departure in New Caledonia Noumea.
