The act of cession is the assignment of property to another entity. In international law it commonly refers to land transferred by treaty. Ballentine's Law Dictionary defines cession as "a surrender; a giving up; a relinquishment of jurisdiction by a board in favor of another agency"[1] In contrast with annexation, where property is forcibly given up, cession is voluntary or at least apparently so.

The deed of cession in Fiji refers to the formal agreement executed in 1874 when Fiji ceded its sovereignty to the British Crown. This agreement marked the end of the Fijian monarchy and established British colonial rule over the islands. The deed was signed by the Fijian chiefs, who sought protection from external threats and internal conflicts, ultimately leading to significant changes in governance and land ownership in Fiji. It is a crucial document in Fiji's history, symbolizing the transition from indigenous rule to colonial administration.
