Everyday Costs in in Samoa

How much does it really cost to live, work, or travel in ? Here's what to expect for daily expenses and expat living.

Currency Guide: Samoa (ISO Code WS)

For travelers planning a week-long mid-range stay in Samoa, a budget of about 1,500 to 2,000 WST (Samoan Tala) is advisable. This estimation covers accommodations, meals, transportation, and some leisure activities. Here’s a glimpse of typical daily expenses in WST:

  • 🍽️ Meal at a local restaurant: 40–75 WST
  • ☕ Coffee: 7–15 WST
  • 🚍 Public transport fare: 5 WST
  • 📶 Prepaid SIM card: 25–40 WST
  • 🏨 Budget hotel or Airbnb: 150–300 WST per night

In comparison to the United States, Samoa tends to be slightly cheaper in terms of dining and local transportation, but housing options can be more expensive depending on your location. When compared to Australia, travelers might find that Samoa offers a more affordable experience overall, especially when it comes to enjoying local cuisine and engaging in outdoor activities.

Living Costs for Expats in Samoa

For expats relocating to Samoa, typical monthly living costs can range between 3,000 to 4,500 WST, depending on lifestyle choices. This includes rent, utilities, groceries, and dining out. It's wise for expats to familiarize themselves with the local banking system, as many international card providers are accepted within major towns. However, for larger expenses or regular payments, utilizing online transfer services like Wise or OFX may prove more economical, given favorable exchange rates and lower fees compared to traditional banks. When it comes to exchanging money, local options can be reliable, but expats might find they save more by transferring funds through established online services, especially if they're regularly sending money home.

In summary, Samoa combines a laid-back lifestyle with reasonable living costs, making it an attractive destination for both travelers and expats alike.
