The Immigration Department will be sending out teams next week to renew passports of Fijian living overseas.

Director Major Nemani Vuniwaqa confirms there has been increasing interest from people who’ve migrated and had their passports expire.

Teams will be leaving for Australia, New Zealand, the United States and Canada and a few other counties still being worked out.

Major Vuniwaqa confirms the exercise will include applications for dual citizenship as well.

Many Fijians living overseas who wanted to register for the September elections couldn’t do so because they didn’t have valid passports.
