FRCS Connects with Rural Communities at Nadarivatu Roadshow

FRCS was pleased to participate in the Mini Roadshow organised by the Ministry of Rural and Maritime Development and National Disaster Risk Management at the Nadarivatu Government Station.

The event provided a valuable opportunity for FRCS to engage directly with residents and raise awareness about our services and initiatives that support rural development. Through our information booth, the FRCS team assisted community members with Tax Identification Number (TIN) and Joint Card registrations while providing information on the range of services available.

Outreach programmes such as these enable FRCS to bring essential services closer to communities that may face challenges accessing our service centres. By taking our services directly to the people, we are improving accessibility, fostering greater awareness, and ensuring more Fijians can benefit from the support we provide.

FRCS remains committed to working with partner agencies to enhance service delivery and strengthen connections with communities across Fiji and thank the Ministry of Rural and Maritime Development and National Disaster Risk Management for organising this important initiative.

FRCS and UNODC Reaffirm Partnership to Boost Pacific Border Security

The Fiji Revenue and Customs Service (FRCS) met with Mr. David O’Connell, Border Management Branch Asia Coordinator and Maritime Lead and Mr. Tuna Bozalan, Programme Officer of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) to reaffirm its ongoing support and collaboration in strengthening border security across Fiji and the wider Pacific region.

The engagement underscored the continued partnership between FRCS and UNODC in enhancing maritime compliance and combating transnational organized crime throughout the Blue Pacific. Both parties acknowledged the critical role of coordinated enforcement in safeguarding regional borders against illicit trade and cross-border criminal activity.

FRCS reiterated its commitment to working closely with other law enforcement agencies, both domestically and regionally, to strengthen intelligence-sharing, operational coordination, and capacity-building initiatives aimed at securing the region’s borders.

FRCS acknowledged the productive and longstanding relationship with UNODC, noting that continued cooperation remains vital to protecting Fiji and the Pacific from the evolving threats posed by transnational organized crime.
