INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Trustees and Shareholders of Fidelity Advisor Series VIII:
In planning and performing our audits of the financial statements
of Fidelity Advisor Europe Capital Appreciation and Fidelity
Advisor International Capital Appreciation (the "Funds") (each a
series of Fidelity Advisor Series VIII) for the period ended
October 31, 1999 (on which we have issued our reports dated
December 3, 1999), we considered their internal control, including
control activities for safeguarding securities, in order to
determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our
opinion on the financial statements and to comply with the
requirements of Form N-SAR, and not to provide assurance on the
Funds' internal control.
The management of the Funds is responsible for establishing and
maintaining internal control. In fulfilling this responsibility,
estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the
expected benefits and related costs of controls. Generally,
controls that are relevant to an audit pertain to the entity's
objective of preparing financial statements for external purposes
that are fairly presented in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. Those controls include the safeguarding of
assets against unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition.
Because of inherent limitations in any internal control,
misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Also, projections of any evaluation of internal control to future
periods are subject to the risk that the internal control may
become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the
degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our consideration of the Funds' internal control would not
necessarily disclose all matters in internal control that might be
material weaknesses under standards established by the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A material weakness is
a condition in which the design or operation of one or more of the
internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low
level the risk that misstatements caused by error or fraud in
amounts that would be material in relation to the financial
statements being audited may occur and not be detected within a
timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their
assigned functions. However, we noted no matters involving the
Funds' internal control and its operation, including controls for
safeguarding securities, that we consider to be material weaknesses
as defined above as of October 31, 1999.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of
management, the Board of Trustees of Fidelity Advisor Series VIII,
and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not intended to
be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified
parties.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
TO ACCOMPANY FORM N-SAR
____
To the Trustees of Fidelity Advisor Series VIII:
In planning and performing our audits of the financial
statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as
"financial statements") of the Funds of Fidelity Advisor Series
VIII: Fidelity Advisor Diversified International Fund, Fidelity
Advisor Global Equity Fund, Fidelity Advisor Japan Fund, Fidelity
Advisor Latin America Fund, Fidelity Advisor Overseas Fund and
Fidelity Advisor Emerging Asia Fund for the year ended October
31, 1999 we considered their internal control, including control
activities for safeguarding securities, in order to determine our
auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on
the financial statements and to comply with the requirements of
Form N-SAR, not to provide assurance on internal control.
The management of the Trust is responsible for establishing and
maintaining internal control. In fulfilling this responsibility,
estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the
expected benefits and related costs of controls. Generally,
controls that are relevant to an audit pertain to the entity's
objective of preparing financial statements for external purposes
that are fairly presented in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. Those controls include the safeguarding
of assets against unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition.
Because of inherent limitations in internal control,
misstatements due to errors or fraud may occur and not be
detected. Also, projection of any evaluation of internal control
to future periods is subject to the risk that it may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the
effectiveness of the design and operation may deteriorate.
Our consideration of internal control would not necessarily
disclose all matters in internal control that might be material
weaknesses under standards established by the American Institute
of Certified Public Accountants. A material weakness is a
condition in which the design or operation of any specific
internal control component does not reduce to a relatively low
level the risk that misstatements due to errors or fraud in
amounts that would be material in relation to the financial
statements being audited may occur and not be detected within a
timely period by employees in the normal course of performing
their assigned functions. However, we noted no matters
involving internal control and its operation, including controls
over safeguarding securities, that we consider to be material
weaknesses as defined above as of October 31, 1999.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of
management and the Trustees of the Trust and the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
