Yeah, their "free association" status with New Zealand will probably be a problem. Faroe Islands have struggled for recognition despite the support of nearby nations.  

True, but nobody recognizes the Faroe Islands as independent. The UN (and USA) technically recognizes Niue.

 

Re. Free association isn’t Niue basically the same like Palau/Marshall Islands/Micronesia except with no separate citizenship?

Yes, I think the citizenship issue will prove the biggest hurdle for them though.
