Official wording
If you are from a non-exempted country, you must apply for the visa in advance and obtain approval before traveling to Vanuatu.
Aevamo’s reading
Section 26 of the Immigration Act No. 17 of 2010 creates the obligation itself: it makes it an offence for a non-citizen who is not the holder of a visa to enter Vanuatu, and ss 26A and 26B (inserted by the 2018 amendment) are the powers under which the visa-on-arrival and exemption orders are made. The ministry pages describe and apply that statutory scheme rather than creating it.
The Department's visit page says a traveller from a non-exempted country 'must apply for the visa in advance and obtain approval before traveling to Vanuatu', i.e. advance authorisation is required for every issuer not on the exempted list.

What this answer covers Limits & assumptions
Work and residence rights are separate from this check. This is the entry rule and the length of stay the instrument grants. It is not a decision about you: the officer at the border decides admission, and we do not evaluate the purpose of your trip, your passport's remaining validity, an onward ticket, funds, insurance or health requirements.
