Fiji Port Overview

Fiji is a Pacific island shipping market in which Suva and Lautoka serve as the principal commercial gateways, while smaller ports support inter-island distribution, agricultural exports, fuel movements and project cargo. Ecer Freight indexed coverage is separate from national port throughput and international container-port league tables.

Top Fiji Ports by Commercial Relevance

The table reflects the ordering of Fiji port records in the Ecer Freight database rather than a global container-port ranking. A consolidated, consistently published 2025 TEU series is not available for every listed Fiji facility, so rank, throughput and year-on-year fields are shown together as unavailable where no reliable comparable figure can be confirmed.

Understanding Fiji Port Codes

UN/LOCODE identifiers help carriers, forwarders, customs teams and logistics platforms distinguish Fiji locations in booking, routing and documentation workflows.

FJ plus a three-character location code

A Fiji UN/LOCODE begins with the country prefix FJ and is followed by three characters identifying the location. For example, Suva is listed as FJSUV.

City-level and terminal-level records

A city or port-area record and a terminal or facility record may appear separately in logistics databases. Lautoka is represented by both FJLTK and FJLAU in the Ecer Freight sample.

How to verify a code

Compare the code against the UNECE UN/LOCODE reference and the Ecer Freight port directory before issuing shipping instructions.
