Frequently Asked Questions
Will the records of directors and shareholders be public in Samoa?
No. Samoa is known for its high level of corporate privacy. The names of directors, shareholders, and beneficial owners are not disclosed in any public register, ensuring total anonymity for business owners.
What are the tax benefits of a Samoa International Company (IC)?
Samoa offshore companies are fully exempt from all local taxes and stamp duties. This includes 0% tax on corporate income, dividends, interest, capital gains, and inheritance, provided the business is conducted outside of Samoa.
Are there accounting and auditing requirements in Samoa?
No. Samoa IBCs are not required to file annual tax returns, accounting records, or audited financial statements with the government, which significantly reduces maintenance costs and administrative burden.
What are the naming requirements for a Samoa company?
The name must be unique and can be in any language. It must end with suffixes such as 'Limited', 'Corporation', 'Incorporated', 'Société Anonyme', 'S.A.', or their abbreviations. 'Ltd.' is the most common choice.
How long does it take to incorporate in Samoa?
Samoa offers one of the fastest registration processes in the Pacific. Typically, a company can be incorporated within 1 to 2 working days once the name is approved and KYC documents are verified.
Do I need a local director or secretary in Samoa?
While a local company secretary is required (and provided in our packages), there is no requirement for a local director. You can have a single individual acting as both the sole director and sole shareholder.
