Samoa Govt issues travel advisory
TRAVEL ADVISORY FROM SAMOA
Effective May 1, 2023 all travelers from the Territory (including infants aged 6 months and above) are required to be vaccinated with a Measles vaccine before entering Samoa.
Children below 2 years of age must comply and infants aged 6 months to 15 months must have a single dose; while 15 months to 24 months should complete the required 2 doses.
The Samoa Government has amended its travel advisories for all travelers from the territory as a result of the measles outbreak.
“A legitimate vaccine certificate/note is required before boarding and a hard copy must
be presented both at check-in and upon arrival into Samoa for sighting. Vaccine
certificates in electronic form stored on phones or other electronic devices must have
a QR code.”
Being fully vaccinated indicates having completed the required prescribed doses as per vaccine used. All passengers should have completed 2 weeks (14 days) post vaccination prior to travel.
The vaccine certificate/Note must be a Health Authority Approved Certificate/Card of the country where vaccination took place.
Failure to provide a legitimate vaccination certificate, or meet the above conditions will result in NO BOARDING or Denied Entry into Samoa.
Upon Arrival into Samoa all passengers are required to wear face masks at all times and are strongly encouraged to take precautionary and preventive measures within the first seven days of arrival.
