Persons visiting Samoa are met by immigration officials at the airport who stamp their passports with an entry permit, allowing them to stay until the date of their flight out of the country. There is no problem extending a stay for up to 30 days. Extensions longer than 30 days are possible but not automatic. An easy way to obtain an extension is to take a quick trip to American Samoa before returning to Western Samoa. | Persons visiting Samoa are met by immigration officials at the airport who stamp their passports with an entry permit, allowing them to stay until the date of their flight out of the country.

Gaining residency is not that easy and the government decides how many permanent resident permits will be granted in any year. Successful applicants for immigration need to show that they will make a significant contribution to the social and economic prosperity of Samoa. | Gaining residency is not that easy and the government decides how many permanent resident permits will be granted in any year.
