→ Samoa visa for United States citizens

As a U.S. passport holder planning a trip to Samoa, you'll be pleased to know that a visa on arrival is readily available, allowing for an extended stay of up to 90 days for tourism. While the primary visa type for visitors is the tourist visa, there are no separate application fees required upfront, as this is a complimentary benefit. When planning your journey, remember that most flights will connect through Auckland, New Zealand, so factor in potential layover times and consider the Samoan Tala (WST) as your local currency, as U.S. Dollars are not widely accepted outside of major hotels.
