Travel requirements

Before booking and before departure, ensure you check the latest Government of SamoaOpens external site and Samoa Ministry of HealthOpens external site websites, plus the AustralianOpens external site government conditions for travel, including any applicable Australian state government restrictions and requirements, which may include mandatory travel and health declarations, COVID-19 testing, vaccinations, use of face masks, and immigration and entry requirements (which may include renewing your passport, or applying for a visa), or you could be denied entry. This information is subject to change and we recommend you check these websites frequently for any updates.

Some countries have restrictions around transiting. If you're transiting via another country or onto another international flight, ensure you check the requirements of your transiting and destination country to ensure their Government allows you to transit.

If your itinerary includes travel with another airline, or Qantas codeshare flights which are operated by another airline on their aircraft, you'll need to contact them directly to understand and meet their requirements.

As of 22 September 2022, all COVID-19 travel restrictions have been lifted by the Government of Samoa, and you're no longer required to provide evidence of a negative pre-departure COVID-19 test result nor a vaccination certificate.

Keep up to date with the latest requirements

It’s important to continue to check the relevant government websites for the latest travel requirements, as these may change closer to your departure date and more information may become available.
