Samoan ordinary passport holders need a visa before visiting Dubai. Arrange your Dubai Visit Visa from Samoa before departure, using the details in the passport you will carry. Dubai Visits Visa provides online application assistance, document review and tracking.
What are the Dubai visa requirements for Samoan passport holders?
This page concerns citizens of the Independent State of Samoa. Living in Samoa or American Samoa does not, by itself, establish your passport nationality. Give your citizenship, current residence and departure country separately when completing an application or requesting advice.
If you hold an emergency passport or another travel document, ask about its acceptance before applying.
Which Dubai Visa documents should I prepare?
General tourist visa requirements include a passport copy, a personal photograph, an onward or departure ticket, and medical insurance valid in the UAE. Your passport or travel document must be accepted for entry and return to the relevant country of residence or issue.
Check passport validity for Dubai against your planned arrival date: at least six months must remain when you enter the UAE.
Our application form also requests accommodation details. Keep your hotel booking or host information ready, and ensure your name, birth date and passport number match your passport.
Can I choose a 30-day Dubai Visit Visa?
Single-entry tourist visas provide stays of 30 or 60 days, subject to applicable requirements and immigration approval. A 60-day Dubai Visa may suit a longer itinerary, while the shorter option covers a briefer visit.
The permitted stay is separate from the deadline for entering the UAE. Read both on your issued visa rather than counting your stay from the application date.
How can I arrange a Dubai Visa from Apia?
Follow our guide on how to apply for a Dubai Visit Visa, complete the online form and upload clear documents. We review documents before submission; immigration authorities decide the outcome.
Faleolo International Airport is outside Apia, so include your airport transfer in your travel plan. For a Dubai Visit Visa from Salelologa, allow for the journey from Savai’i if your flight departs from Upolu. Ferries connect Salelologa with Mulifanua; check the current schedule before arranging onward transport.
How does Dubai Visa status tracking work?
Once you apply through our website, use your application ID to check your Dubai Visa status. After approval, compare the visa’s personal details with your passport.
For guidance on your documents or travel circumstances, contact Dubai Visits Visa with your passport type and intended arrival date.
