Joeli Veitayaki Jr. (born 14 March 1986) is a Fijian former rugby union international.

Veitayaki, a native of Gau Island, is of no relation to the Fiji prop of the same name, but is a nephew of dual-code international Pauliasi Tabulutu.[1] He plays his local rugby for Naitasiri and has been capped seven times for Fiji, all as a substitute.[2] In 2018, he was a member of the Fijian Drua side which won the National Rugby Championship.[3]
