Re-Domiciling Companies Into Samoa
The Samoan International Companies Act 1987 allows a company registered outside the jurisdiction to re-domicile into Samoa. The 1998 amendments to the Act and associated Regulations have made the process not only simpler, but very cost effective.
The re-domiciliation process is simpler as the Registrar of International Companies in Samoa is no longer required to seek the prior authorisation of the regulatory body in the company's home jurisdiction. This prior requirement, quite understandably caused significant delays to the transfer of domicile. It is now only necessary that evidence be shown that the laws in the home jurisdiction of the migrating company permit outwards re-domiciliation.
