COMMON MISCONCEPTIONS

  • Tuvalu (the country) is distinct from the .tv domain branding many global TV platforms use.
  • Climate displacement plans (Australia 'Falepili Union' 2023) do not change current visitor rules.

JURISDICTION NOTES

  • Tourist visa-free entry varies widely; Funafuti is the only international airport with limited weekly flights from Suva.
  • The .tv top-level-domain license is a significant national revenue source.
