An Important Rule You may NOT work in Papua New Guinea if you do not possess a valid work permit! Significant penalties apply if you are caught working without a valid work permit.
FeesApplication for General Work Permit – K1000.00 for each year of the work permit. (At the time of publication, this fee was correct. Seek confirmation with the Department of Labour and Industrial Relations.)
Responsibility of DLIR (Foreign Employment Division) In the first instance, all non-citizens must be granted a work permit by DLIR. The application for the work permit will be processed by the Foreign Employment Division (FED) of DLIR. Any decision with respect to the application for a work permit will be decided by the Secretary, DLIR. The Secretary will consider the application in accordance with the Employment of Non-citizens Act 2007 and the Employment of Non-citizens Regulation 2008.
Once a non-citizen has been issued with a work permit, he or she must apply to Immigration for the appropriate Entry Permit (Visa). A visa allows a non-citizen to enter PNG and remain for a specific period. Any decision with respect to a visa application will be made in accordance with the Migration Act 1978 and Regulation. Non-citizen employees who have been issued with a work permit are granted a specific visa called the ‘Working Resident Entry Permit’. Immigration also issues many other types of visas such as: Visitor Visa, Business Visa and Student Visa. Immigration also issues Permanent Resident Visas and Papua New Guinean Passports.
Immigration is responsible for processing and issuing entry permits (visas) and passports. It is not responsible for processing and issuing work permits.
DivingPNG is flush with amazing dives sites, from Port Moresby and Tufi in the south to Madang and the islands in the north. If you’re an avid diver be sure to check out Der Yang wreck at Echuca Patch in Kavieng, the B17 Blackjack at Cape Vogel, Susie’s Bommie off Port Moresby, Milne Bay for manta rays and muck diving, and Kilibob’s Knob in Kimbe Bay for its shark dive.
SurfingFor over 15 years, PNG has been capturing the hearts of surf enthusiasts. The most consistent waves are in Vanimo with surf camps also set up at Wewak and Aitape. Bougainville, East New Britain, New Ireland and Manus Island also serve up great surf.
FishingFrom the rivers to the oceans, PNG offers the ultimate fishing experience. The coastal waters offer abundant bluewater and big game fishing such as marlin, sailfish, yellow fin tuna, giant trevally and dogtooth tuna. Meanwhile, the black bass, reputed to be one of the world’s toughest fighting fish, can be found in the Fly, Sepik and Lower Ramu Rivers.
TrekkingPNG offers many exciting options for the avid hiker, from trekking dense rainforests and rugged peaks, to long-distance coastal walks with ocean views. Try the famous Kokoda Trail, Mount Wilhelm – PNG’s highest peak, the Rotokas-Numa Trail or Trans-New Britain Track.
BirdwatchingMany visitors to PNG are attracted to the region for its birdwatching or ‘birding’ as it’s known among enthusiasts. Considering there are no less than 646 species on record, it’s little wonder the activity is so immensely popular. The renowned bird of paradise, among other beautiful species, is what brings serious birders to PNG.

Today, visitors to Papua New Guinea discover a country with a mining-based economy, a development that would have seemed worlds away before the 1970s.
Prior to the 1970s, there was little mineral extraction in PNG and the country’s economy was driven by the growing and selling of coffee and copra. Towns such as Madang, Goroka and Lae brought the PNG products to the world. Coffee, which was developed through the influx of German missionaries before World War II, thrived in the perfect conditions. The large available workforce and worldwide demand for coffee quickly resulted in a successful business formula and beans were transported to Lae, where they were shipped to the world.
In a similar vein to coffee, the copra trade of PNG pushed the economy along in a way that had not previously been witnessed by the rest of the world. Copra is the dried meat of the coconut and one of the world’s richest crops due to the fact that once crushed it produces 70% oil. Given the abundance of coconuts and willing workers, copra soon helped companies such as Burns Philp and Steamships build their respective PNG fortunes.
As the economy took its course, it stood to reason that investors and miners would attempt to tap into the wealthy gold deposits that were reported originally by Captain Moresby in 1873 and then further exploited by others in parts of German New Guinea, including the Waria Valley and what later became known as the Morobe Goldfield. Copper was also discovered and reasonable amounts were mined at the Astrolabe mineral field near Port Moresby for a couple of decades in the early 20th century.
From the mid 1960s, as copper demand grew worldwide, many areas of PNG were subjected to first pass prospecting and, ultimately, the Panguna Copper Mine in Bougainville became one of the world’s largest open-pit mines. Panguna dominated the economy of Bougainville during the 1970s and 1980s at which time the company’s tax and dividend payments made up around 20% of the national budget of PNG. Today, however, OK Tedi Mining boasts the largest operating copper mining facility in the country, which commenced full operation in 1984.
Gold has also continued to be an important part of the PNG economy and, although there are several active gold mining facilities, Lihir Gold Ltd is still one of the major gold mines in PNG today. The company commenced operation in 1997 and Lihir Island hosts one of the world’s largest gold deposits. Like OK Tedi, Lihir is one of the most profitable mines in the country and underpins a great deal of the economy.
With many projects currently being explored, coupled with the LNG pipeline, PNG seems set to have a long future association with the mining and petroleum industries.

KokopoThe capital of East New Britain is Kokopo, which lies in proximity to the original capital of Rabaul. Rabaul was famously destroyed in the volcanic eruptions of Tavurvur and Vulcan back in September 1994. Today, both townships provide a perfect base from which to explore the region.East New Britain is a great place to birdwatch as it is home to a number of exotic birds including the renowned hornbill and megapode, among other species. The caves in the region are regarded as world class, so be sure to check out the caves at Pomio which can be accessed by boat or vehicle.If diving is your passion, the WWII wrecks that litter the reefs surrounding East New Britain offer diving and snorkelling with excellent visibility year round. Simpson Harbour, the location where 54 Japanese ships were sunk during the war effort, and the Beehives (a small group of craggy islands) both offer great diving. Tavui Point, once an official submarine base, provides fantastic snorkelling over Japanese submarines.Sport fishing for marlin and dogtooth tuna is available in the waters around both New Britain and Duke of York Islands. Boats operate from Rabaul, and hotels and guesthouses can also organise trips for you. The beautiful Duke of York Islands are remote but easy to access. The islands are also perfect for canoeing, swimming and snorkelling with accommodation available on some.Don’t miss the Baining Fire Dance, which is routinely performed at night and showcases young men wearing distinctive masks dancing energetically in and out of fire. The dance is believed to be a rite of passage for Baining progeny and is performed to spirited chanting and drumming. Held in July each year, the National Mask Festival in Rabaul pays homage to the sacred masks of the region. While the Warwagira Music Festival doesn’t have quite the same profile as the Mask Festival, it is just as much fun. The Frangipani Festival held in September features the Baining Fire Dance, sing-sings, a parade and much more.

customs informationUnderstand the customs requirements and restrictions when arriving and departing Papua New Guinea.At Jackson’s International Airport, it is compulsory for all visitors to PNG to fill out a passenger declaration for goods entering the country. Penalties apply to any visitor found making a false claim. Visitors that exceed their duty free limit may have to pay duty on arrival to PNG. The types of items that will need to be declared are:• Goods that are prohibited or restricted: firearms; weapons such as flick
knives; flora and fauna; agricultural products such as foods (canned, fresh, smoked) and animal byproducts; biological products; and medicines (ensure you have a prescription from your doctor on hand).
• Goods that exceed K1000 allowance• Goods deemed for business or trade purposes • Tobacco products that exceed 250gms or over 250 cigarettes• Alcoholic beverages exceeding more than 2 litres.For importing goods into PNG, all goods must be claimed at customs by completing an import declaration form. A license or permit may be required for restricted goods so please check this prior to importation. Once the form is lodged with supporting documentation, then payment on any taxes and duties needs to made. Only after all transport costs have been paid can importers claim their goods. Goods may be subject to inspection.In terms of taking goods home, many of the same restrictions apply to countries such as Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Fiji and Singapore as in PNG. Therefore, it’s advised that all items made from plant material and wood are inspected and treated prior to leaving PNG, otherwise items will likely be inspected on arrival back home. If insect damage is detected, this may result in them being destroyed. In some cases, you may even be fined. There are many pest control businesses in PNG which will fumigate your goods and supply you with certification to show customs on arrival back home.

Environmental Impact Assessment BranchThe Environmental Impact Assessment Branch is required to monitor, assess and manage all development proposals through the environmental planning legislation under the Environmental Planning Act 1978.
Under this Act, a developer may voluntarily submit, or be required to submit, a detailed environmental plan to the DEC for assessment and evaluation before gaining approval to proceed.
Once approval has been granted and the development proceeds, the division is then responsible for ensuring that the development’s progress complies with the conditions laid down in the environmental plan. This involves regular inspections and the evaluation of monitoring and survey results to verify compliance.
Environmental Protection BranchThe Environmental Protection Branch has the responsibility to ensure the prevention, abatement and control of environmental contaminants through the administration of the Environmental Contaminants Act 1978. This Act covers many areas of environmental pollution and makes provision for establishing a licensing procedure for water, air and land discharge of pollutants.
It also sets out to establish a register of hazardous environmental contaminants, which regulates their importation, manufacture, distribution and use. At the present time, the effective operation of this legislation awaits the development of licensing procedures and regulatory standards.
The branch is responsible for the implementation of the country’s obligation under the Convention for the Protection of the Ozone Layer and Protocol on Substances that deplete the ozone layer.
Environmental PermitsMount Hagen, the capital of the Western Highlands Province, is named after an extinct volcano 24 kilometres northwest, which is said to take its name from a German Colonel Officer Curt von Hagen. The prevalence of German-named landmarks in the region is derivative of the period 1884 to 1914 when the area was colonised by Germans and known as German New Guinea. The region was subsequently overtaken by Australian Forces in 1914, following the onset of World War I.Today, with mining and agricultural ventures into coffee, sweet potatoes and potatoes in the area, Mount Hagen has expanded to become the commercial hub of the Western Highlands. The cooler climate and high altitudes are particularly ideal for growing Arabic coffee for which the area of Banz is renowned.Trans Niugini Tours is one of the main tour operators in Mount Hagen and offer birdwatching, trekking, fishing and other tailored activities. There is also a number of more localised tour operators in Mount Hagen. Simply ask one of the staff at your accommodation to point you in the right direction.The Western Highlands is home to the Baiyer River Sanctuary, which expands across a massive 740 hectares and includes 185 species of birdlife. This spectacular nature park and its wildlife are a must-do while you’re in the region.In August every year, Mount Hagen boasts a feast of activities as it plays host to the ever-popular Mount Hagen Show. First launched in 1964, this festival continues to showcase the rich heritage of the local culture featuring 75 tribes from throughout PNG. If you’re interested in the local culture and your timing is right, this is one event not to be missed.On Saturdays, you can visit the Hagen Market, one of PNG’s foremost markets, for fresh produce and other interesting items such as highland hats. Get amongst the locals and experience Mount Hagen up close.

Located in the Eastern Highlands, Goroka is known today for its annual Goroka Show, unique pottery and the famous mudmen. Coffee is the financial backbone of the region and enjoyed by connoisseurs worldwide.
PNG has always attracted religious groups from around the world, an influx which kickstarted coffee planting in the region. Before WWII German missionaries arrived and, longing for European comforts, began experimental plantings in the area around Goroka. The perfect environmental conditions, a large available workforce and a worldwide demand for coffee quickly resulted in a successful business formula. In just a short time, coffee became one of the financial mainstays for PNG. Today, around 2.5 million Papua New Guineans derive a primary income from coffee growing.
PNG coffee is highly regarded for its excellent quality and fruity flavours. The elevated landscape, rich soils and organic growing methods all contribute to a superior brew. The process by which the beans are prepared for sale also determines the quality of the final product. Once the coffee cherry (red bean) is picked, the bean is dried to an ideal 10% moisture content. The beans then go through a process of dehusking and careful grading. Finally, the green beans are sent for packaging where they are stored in controlled conditions to protect the integrity of the beans. Typically, coffee is roasted at its destination to guarantee a fresh, quality drink. A visit to a local coffee factory is well worth the effort if you’re in the region.
While in the region, take a trip to Kainantu to visit the famous Kainantu Pottery. The entire region is famous for its clay work but Kainantu has a worldwide reputation for its remarkable pottery.
In September each year Goroka plays host to the Goroka Cultural Show. The show’s roots hark back to the 1950s and it provides visitors with the opportunity to experience the traditions and culture of Papua New Guineans in the region.

An enduring culturePapua New Guinea is one of the most culturally diverse countries in the world. Its cultural origins have shaped the nation it is today.Around 50,000 years ago, Asian migrants travelled across the Indonesian archipelago to become the first human inhabitants of PNG. Archaeological remnants such as stone axes and animal fragments discovered in the Ivane Valley date back anywhere between 44,000 to 49,000 years. It’s believed islands such as New Britain and New Ireland were settled around 35,000 years ago, and Manus as late as 20,000 years ago. Evidence suggests that, rather than settling in one place, the first regional dwellers moved nomadically from the mountains to lower elevations to rotate their food supply. With migrational groups dispersing over time, the remote conditions gave rise to unique tribal customs and languages. Early settlers of PNG are ancestrally linked with Aborigines as Australia was once connected to PNG by a land bridge evident during the Pleistocene Epoch. This marked a period when the polar ice caps retained more water, therefore sea levels were marginally lower than they currently are. The land bridge disappeared approximately 8,000 years ago, which explains why the same race of people became so culturally diversified.Another migrational wave occurred around 3,500 years ago evidenced in the ornate pottery remnants found throughout the region. The pottery was crafted by the Lapita people who archaeologists initially believed were traders passing through from eastern Asia. It was discovered later that the Lapita people colonised areas of PNG by bringing anything they required to settle comfortably, which included animals and the means to plant crops. Their superior artisan skills are showcased not just in their pottery but in the ingenuity of their flaked stone and wood tools, and shell artefacts. The first people to settle in PNG were hunter gatherers who subsisted on a diet of animal, fish and local vegetation. With global temperatures eventually increasing around 10,000 years ago, it’s no surprise that evidence of agricultural farming was found in PNG from 9,000 years onwards. Papua New Guineans have, in fact, been credited with being one of the first cultures to agriculturally farm land. The existence of domesticated pigs in PNG dates back as early as 5,000 years. Pigs remain culturally and financially important today with marriages still consecrated with a dowry of pigs. Many Papua New Guineans also still live off subsistence farming.

With its deep port and central northern location, Lae is the home of industry and export in PNG. While vastly different from the commercial atmosphere of Port Moresby, Lae is very much responsible for a large portion of the annual Papua New Guinean economy.With a population of around 150,000, Lae is home to the famous Morobe Cultural Show and offers visitors plenty of things to see and do. Be sure to take a trip to the Rainforest Habitat, which is located on the grounds of the University of Technology.The Lae War Cemetery houses 2,808 soldiers buried here as a result of the World War II (WWII) operations in PNG. The cemetery is located in Memorial Drive and is opened most days with free entry. Another really interesting and lesser-known attraction in Lae is the Japanese Memorial, which is on the way to Wagang Village. Wagang Village is also called Sipaia Village after the Myoko Maru that is aground just off the beach there. To get to the memorial, drive out past the Pistol Club and keep going towards Malahang. Just as you arrive at the Malahang Industrial Estate, take a right hand turn towards the coast and you’ll see the memorial half way along.

commercial fishing in PNGThe vast riverways and ocean surrounding PNG are teeming with fish of all varieties, which has provided a ready-made food source for Papua New Guineans for thousands of years. More recently, it has given rise to a commercial fishing industry of small to medium operators with a fisheries zone comprising 2.4 million square kilometres. Inland and coastal fisheries, aquaculture, and tuna and prawn trawling have sustained the fishing industry in PNG. Aside from tuna and prawn, barramundi and lobster are predominantly fished out of the waters here with trout and carp only now being commercially fished by farmers in the Highlands.
The PNG government is involved in the management of commercial fishing to ensure that the country plans for a sustainable future, monitoring the environmental impact of commercial fishing on the region while supporting growth. The PNG National Fisheries Authority (NFA) is the regulatory body overseeing the development of commercial fishing. The main objective of the Fisheries Management (Amendment) Act 2015 is “to promote long-term conservation, management and sustainable use of the marine living resources of Papua New Guinea for the people of Papua New Guinea”. The NFA is currently implementing innovative strategies which support its sustainable objectives.
For more information on commercial fishing in PNG, please visit www.fisheries.gov.pg or call the NFA on 309 0444.

Useful Numbers
With its deep port and central northern location, Lae is the home of industry and export in PNG. While vastly different from the commercial atmosphere of Port Moresby, Lae is very much responsible for a large portion of the annual Papua New Guinean economy.With a population of around 150,000, Lae is home to the famous Morobe Cultural Show and offers visitors plenty of things to see and do. Be sure to take a trip to the Rainforest Habitat, which is located on the grounds of the University of Technology.The Lae War Cemetery houses 2,808 soldiers buried here as a result of the World War II (WWII) operations in PNG. The cemetery is located in Memorial Drive and is opened most days with free entry. Another really interesting and lesser-known attraction in Lae is the Japanese Memorial, which is on the way to Wagang Village. Wagang Village is also called Sipaia Village after the Myoko Maru that is aground just off the beach there. To get to the memorial, drive out past the Pistol Club and keep going towards Malahang. Just as you arrive at the Malahang Industrial Estate, take a right hand turn towards the coast and you’ll see the memorial half way along.

commercial fishing in PNGThe vast riverways and ocean surrounding PNG are teeming with fish of all varieties, which has provided a ready-made food source for Papua New Guineans for thousands of years. More recently, it has given rise to a commercial fishing industry of small to medium operators with a fisheries zone comprising 2.4 million square kilometres. Inland and coastal fisheries, aquaculture, and tuna and prawn trawling have sustained the fishing industry in PNG. Aside from tuna and prawn, barramundi and lobster are predominantly fished out of the waters here with trout and carp only now being commercially fished by farmers in the Highlands.
The PNG government is involved in the management of commercial fishing to ensure that the country plans for a sustainable future, monitoring the environmental impact of commercial fishing on the region while supporting growth. The PNG National Fisheries Authority (NFA) is the regulatory body overseeing the development of commercial fishing. The main objective of the Fisheries Management (Amendment) Act 2015 is “to promote long-term conservation, management and sustainable use of the marine living resources of Papua New Guinea for the people of Papua New Guinea”. The NFA is currently implementing innovative strategies which support its sustainable objectives.
For more information on commercial fishing in PNG, please visit www.fisheries.gov.pg or call the NFA on 309 0444.

Located in the Eastern Highlands, Goroka is known today for its annual Goroka Show, unique pottery and the famous mudmen. Coffee is the financial backbone of the region and enjoyed by connoisseurs worldwide.
PNG has always attracted religious groups from around the world, an influx which kickstarted coffee planting in the region. Before WWII German missionaries arrived and, longing for European comforts, began experimental plantings in the area around Goroka. The perfect environmental conditions, a large available workforce and a worldwide demand for coffee quickly resulted in a successful business formula. In just a short time, coffee became one of the financial mainstays for PNG. Today, around 2.5 million Papua New Guineans derive a primary income from coffee growing.
PNG coffee is highly regarded for its excellent quality and fruity flavours. The elevated landscape, rich soils and organic growing methods all contribute to a superior brew. The process by which the beans are prepared for sale also determines the quality of the final product. Once the coffee cherry (red bean) is picked, the bean is dried to an ideal 10% moisture content. The beans then go through a process of dehusking and careful grading. Finally, the green beans are sent for packaging where they are stored in controlled conditions to protect the integrity of the beans. Typically, coffee is roasted at its destination to guarantee a fresh, quality drink. A visit to a local coffee factory is well worth the effort if you’re in the region.
While in the region, take a trip to Kainantu to visit the famous Kainantu Pottery. The entire region is famous for its clay work but Kainantu has a worldwide reputation for its remarkable pottery.
In September each year Goroka plays host to the Goroka Cultural Show. The show’s roots hark back to the 1950s and it provides visitors with the opportunity to experience the traditions and culture of Papua New Guineans in the region.

An enduring culturePapua New Guinea is one of the most culturally diverse countries in the world. Its cultural origins have shaped the nation it is today.Around 50,000 years ago, Asian migrants travelled across the Indonesian archipelago to become the first human inhabitants of PNG. Archaeological remnants such as stone axes and animal fragments discovered in the Ivane Valley date back anywhere between 44,000 to 49,000 years. It’s believed islands such as New Britain and New Ireland were settled around 35,000 years ago, and Manus as late as 20,000 years ago. Evidence suggests that, rather than settling in one place, the first regional dwellers moved nomadically from the mountains to lower elevations to rotate their food supply. With migrational groups dispersing over time, the remote conditions gave rise to unique tribal customs and languages. Early settlers of PNG are ancestrally linked with Aborigines as Australia was once connected to PNG by a land bridge evident during the Pleistocene Epoch. This marked a period when the polar ice caps retained more water, therefore sea levels were marginally lower than they currently are. The land bridge disappeared approximately 8,000 years ago, which explains why the same race of people became so culturally diversified.Another migrational wave occurred around 3,500 years ago evidenced in the ornate pottery remnants found throughout the region. The pottery was crafted by the Lapita people who archaeologists initially believed were traders passing through from eastern Asia. It was discovered later that the Lapita people colonised areas of PNG by bringing anything they required to settle comfortably, which included animals and the means to plant crops. Their superior artisan skills are showcased not just in their pottery but in the ingenuity of their flaked stone and wood tools, and shell artefacts. The first people to settle in PNG were hunter gatherers who subsisted on a diet of animal, fish and local vegetation. With global temperatures eventually increasing around 10,000 years ago, it’s no surprise that evidence of agricultural farming was found in PNG from 9,000 years onwards. Papua New Guineans have, in fact, been credited with being one of the first cultures to agriculturally farm land. The existence of domesticated pigs in PNG dates back as early as 5,000 years. Pigs remain culturally and financially important today with marriages still consecrated with a dowry of pigs. Many Papua New Guineans also still live off subsistence farming.

Mount Hagen, the capital of the Western Highlands Province, is named after an extinct volcano 24 kilometres northwest, which is said to take its name from a German Colonel Officer Curt von Hagen. The prevalence of German-named landmarks in the region is derivative of the period 1884 to 1914 when the area was colonised by Germans and known as German New Guinea. The region was subsequently overtaken by Australian Forces in 1914, following the onset of World War I.Today, with mining and agricultural ventures into coffee, sweet potatoes and potatoes in the area, Mount Hagen has expanded to become the commercial hub of the Western Highlands. The cooler climate and high altitudes are particularly ideal for growing Arabic coffee for which the area of Banz is renowned.Trans Niugini Tours is one of the main tour operators in Mount Hagen and offer birdwatching, trekking, fishing and other tailored activities. There is also a number of more localised tour operators in Mount Hagen. Simply ask one of the staff at your accommodation to point you in the right direction.The Western Highlands is home to the Baiyer River Sanctuary, which expands across a massive 740 hectares and includes 185 species of birdlife. This spectacular nature park and its wildlife are a must-do while you’re in the region.In August every year, Mount Hagen boasts a feast of activities as it plays host to the ever-popular Mount Hagen Show. First launched in 1964, this festival continues to showcase the rich heritage of the local culture featuring 75 tribes from throughout PNG. If you’re interested in the local culture and your timing is right, this is one event not to be missed.On Saturdays, you can visit the Hagen Market, one of PNG’s foremost markets, for fresh produce and other interesting items such as highland hats. Get amongst the locals and experience Mount Hagen up close.

Environmental Impact Assessment BranchThe Environmental Impact Assessment Branch is required to monitor, assess and manage all development proposals through the environmental planning legislation under the Environmental Planning Act 1978.
Under this Act, a developer may voluntarily submit, or be required to submit, a detailed environmental plan to the DEC for assessment and evaluation before gaining approval to proceed.
Once approval has been granted and the development proceeds, the division is then responsible for ensuring that the development’s progress complies with the conditions laid down in the environmental plan. This involves regular inspections and the evaluation of monitoring and survey results to verify compliance.
Environmental Protection BranchThe Environmental Protection Branch has the responsibility to ensure the prevention, abatement and control of environmental contaminants through the administration of the Environmental Contaminants Act 1978. This Act covers many areas of environmental pollution and makes provision for establishing a licensing procedure for water, air and land discharge of pollutants.
It also sets out to establish a register of hazardous environmental contaminants, which regulates their importation, manufacture, distribution and use. At the present time, the effective operation of this legislation awaits the development of licensing procedures and regulatory standards.
The branch is responsible for the implementation of the country’s obligation under the Convention for the Protection of the Ozone Layer and Protocol on Substances that deplete the ozone layer.

• Goods that exceed K1000 allowance• Goods deemed for business or trade purposes • Tobacco products that exceed 250gms or over 250 cigarettes• Alcoholic beverages exceeding more than 2 litres.For importing goods into PNG, all goods must be claimed at customs by completing an import declaration form. A license or permit may be required for restricted goods so please check this prior to importation. Once the form is lodged with supporting documentation, then payment on any taxes and duties needs to made. Only after all transport costs have been paid can importers claim their goods. Goods may be subject to inspection.In terms of taking goods home, many of the same restrictions apply to countries such as Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Fiji and Singapore as in PNG. Therefore, it’s advised that all items made from plant material and wood are inspected and treated prior to leaving PNG, otherwise items will likely be inspected on arrival back home.

KokopoThe capital of East New Britain is Kokopo, which lies in proximity to the original capital of Rabaul. Rabaul was famously destroyed in the volcanic eruptions of Tavurvur and Vulcan back in September 1994. Today, both townships provide a perfect base from which to explore the region.East New Britain is a great place to birdwatch as it is home to a number of exotic birds including the renowned hornbill and megapode, among other species. The caves in the region are regarded as world class, so be sure to check out the caves at Pomio which can be accessed by boat or vehicle.If diving is your passion, the WWII wrecks that litter the reefs surrounding East New Britain offer diving and snorkelling with excellent visibility year round. Simpson Harbour, the location where 54 Japanese ships were sunk during the war effort, and the Beehives (a small group of craggy islands) both offer great diving. Tavui Point, once an official submarine base, provides fantastic snorkelling over Japanese submarines.Sport fishing for marlin and dogtooth tuna is available in the waters around both New Britain and Duke of York Islands. Boats operate from Rabaul, and hotels and guesthouses can also organise trips for you. The beautiful Duke of York Islands are remote but easy to access. The islands are also perfect for canoeing, swimming and snorkelling with accommodation available on some.Don’t miss the Baining Fire Dance, which is routinely performed at night and showcases young men wearing distinctive masks dancing energetically in and out of fire. The dance is believed to be a rite of passage for Baining progeny and is performed to spirited chanting and drumming. Held in July each year, the National Mask Festival in Rabaul pays homage to the sacred masks of the region. While the Warwagira Music Festival doesn’t have quite the same profile as the Mask Festival, it is just as much fun. The Frangipani Festival held in September features the Baining Fire Dance, sing-sings, a parade and much more.

Today, visitors to Papua New Guinea discover a country with a mining-based economy, a development that would have seemed worlds away before the 1970s.
Prior to the 1970s, there was little mineral extraction in PNG and the country’s economy was driven by the growing and selling of coffee and copra. Towns such as Madang, Goroka and Lae brought the PNG products to the world. Coffee, which was developed through the influx of German missionaries before World War II, thrived in the perfect conditions. The large available workforce and worldwide demand for coffee quickly resulted in a successful business formula and beans were transported to Lae, where they were shipped to the world.
In a similar vein to coffee, the copra trade of PNG pushed the economy along in a way that had not previously been witnessed by the rest of the world. Copra is the dried meat of the coconut and one of the world’s richest crops due to the fact that once crushed it produces 70% oil. Given the abundance of coconuts and willing workers, copra soon helped companies such as Burns Philp and Steamships build their respective PNG fortunes.
As the economy took its course, it stood to reason that investors and miners would attempt to tap into the wealthy gold deposits that were reported originally by Captain Moresby in 1873 and then further exploited by others in parts of German New Guinea, including the Waria Valley and what later became known as the Morobe Goldfield. Copper was also discovered and reasonable amounts were mined at the Astrolabe mineral field near Port Moresby for a couple of decades in the early 20th century.
From the mid 1960s, as copper demand grew worldwide, many areas of PNG were subjected to first pass prospecting and, ultimately, the Panguna Copper Mine in Bougainville became one of the world’s largest open-pit mines. Panguna dominated the economy of Bougainville during the 1970s and 1980s at which time the company’s tax and dividend payments made up around 20% of the national budget of PNG. Today, however, OK Tedi Mining boasts the largest operating copper mining facility in the country, which commenced full operation in 1984.
Gold has also continued to be an important part of the PNG economy and, although there are several active gold mining facilities, Lihir Gold Ltd is still one of the major gold mines in PNG today. The company commenced operation in 1997 and Lihir Island hosts one of the world’s largest gold deposits. Like OK Tedi, Lihir is one of the most profitable mines in the country and underpins a great deal of the economy.
With many projects currently being explored, coupled with the LNG pipeline, PNG seems set to have a long future association with the mining and petroleum industries.

An Important Rule You may NOT work in Papua New Guinea if you do not possess a valid work permit! Significant penalties apply if you are caught working without a valid work permit.
FeesApplication for General Work Permit – K1000.00 for each year of the work permit. (At the time of publication, this fee was correct. Seek confirmation with the Department of Labour and Industrial Relations.)
Responsibility of DLIR (Foreign Employment Division) In the first instance, all non-citizens must be granted a work permit by DLIR. The application for the work permit will be processed by the Foreign Employment Division (FED) of DLIR. Any decision with respect to the application for a work permit will be decided by the Secretary, DLIR. The Secretary will consider the application in accordance with the Employment of Non-citizens Act 2007 and the Employment of Non-citizens Regulation 2008.
Once a non-citizen has been issued with a work permit, he or she must apply to Immigration for the appropriate Entry Permit (Visa). A visa allows a non-citizen to enter PNG and remain for a specific period. Any decision with respect to a visa application will be made in accordance with the Migration Act 1978 and Regulation. Non-citizen employees who have been issued with a work permit are granted a specific visa called the ‘Working Resident Entry Permit’. Immigration also issues many other types of visas such as: Visitor Visa, Business Visa and Student Visa. Immigration also issues Permanent Resident Visas and Papua New Guinean Passports.
Immigration is responsible for processing and issuing entry permits (visas) and passports. It is not responsible for processing and issuing work permits.
DivingPNG is flush with amazing dives sites, from Port Moresby and Tufi in the south to Madang and the islands in the north. If you’re an avid diver be sure to check out Der Yang wreck at Echuca Patch in Kavieng, the B17 Blackjack at Cape Vogel, Susie’s Bommie off Port Moresby, Milne Bay for manta rays and muck diving, and Kilibob’s Knob in Kimbe Bay for its shark dive.
SurfingFor over 15 years, PNG has been capturing the hearts of surf enthusiasts. The most consistent waves are in Vanimo with surf camps also set up at Wewak and Aitape. Bougainville, East New Britain, New Ireland and Manus Island also serve up great surf.
FishingFrom the rivers to the oceans, PNG offers the ultimate fishing experience. The coastal waters offer abundant bluewater and big game fishing such as marlin, sailfish, yellow fin tuna, giant trevally and dogtooth tuna. Meanwhile, the black bass, reputed to be one of the world’s toughest fighting fish, can be found in the Fly, Sepik and Lower Ramu Rivers.
TrekkingPNG offers many exciting options for the avid hiker, from trekking dense rainforests and rugged peaks, to long-distance coastal walks with ocean views. Try the famous Kokoda Trail, Mount Wilhelm – PNG’s highest peak, the Rotokas-Numa Trail or Trans-New Britain Track.
BirdwatchingMany visitors to PNG are attracted to the region for its birdwatching or ‘birding’ as it’s known among enthusiasts. Considering there are no less than 646 species on record, it’s little wonder the activity is so immensely popular. The renowned bird of paradise, among other beautiful species, is what brings serious birders to PNG.
