American Samoa Talofa Pass

The island of American Samoa is located in the South Pacific Ocean about 100 kilometers east of Samoa. The two cultures are similar in terms of ethnicity. Every year, thousands of nature-loving tourists visit the island due to its friendly people and eco-friendly way of life.

Direct flights with Talofa Airways from Honolulu, Hawaii, to this gorgeous beach destination are slowly starting back up again. Before you go, however, check the American Samoa entry requirements. Not only may you need the American Samoa entry permit waiver, you will also have to register on the online TalofaPass system before arrival. Find out more in this article.
