Scanned and e-mailed copies of the certificates required have been sufficient in the past rather than also sending certified copies.
The Ministry of Health, will give Loloma Foundation a formal letter of invitation for the Taveuni visitors. We will provide that for all the licensee applicants for Taveuni.
