You Must Be 18 or 21 to Gamble in Samoa

In Samoa, individuals aged 18 and above can participate in state-regulated gambling activities such as lotteries, including the Samoa National Lotto. Casino gaming, however, requires a minimum age of 21 and is primarily designed to cater to tourists. The country’s casino offerings are limited, with operations governed by strict licensing requirements.

Unregulated gambling is prohibited and subject to penalties under Samoan law. Both residents and visitors should adhere to local gambling laws and participate only in licensed activities to avoid legal consequences.
