About Consumer Council Of Fiji

The Consumer Council of Fiji is a statutory organisation established under the Consumer Council of Fiji Act (Cap 235). It provides external pressure as a watchdog to create a fair and just delivery of goods and services. The council is an advocacy organisation (not regulatory or enforcement), conducting rigorous research and policy analysis on key consumer issues. Consumer Council of Fiji is a full member of the UK-based Consumers International, a federation of consumer organisations representing over 220 organisations in 115 countries. It is also a member of the Standards Association of New Zealand(SANZ) and the Fiji Forum of Non-State Actors.” The Council’s Alternative Dispute Resolution Division also receives consumer complaints with the aim of fostering the development of effective, low-cost ways for consumers to resolve disputes and obtain replacements or monetary compensation for losses sustained. The ADR Division has tailored mechanisms that can provide consumers with access to remedies that do not impose costs, delays and burdens disproportionate to the economic value at stake. Consumers can lodge complaints using the toll-free number 155.
