Samoa is a country in Oceania with legal gambling. The Gambling Control Authority (GCA) was established under section 5 of the Casino and Gambling Control Act 2010.

The Casino and Gambling Control Act 2010 has 5 objectives that the GCA is tasked with administering and its success will be measured against the attainment of these objectives.  The objectives are to promote probity and integrity in gambling, to maintain the probity and integrity of persons engaged in gambling in Samoa, to promote fairness, integrity and efficiency in the operations of persons engaged in gambling in Samoa, to reduce any adverse social impact of gambling and to promote a balanced contribution by the gambling industry to tourism and general community benefit and amenity. These are the very principles that we built our group on.

Talofa lava and welcome to Samoa, the treasured islands of the South Pacific. Samoa is considered the heart of Polynesia. It has a 3000 year-old way of life called Fa'a Samoa that underpins a memorable visitor experience. Samoa is a postcard of natural beauty consisting of ten islands, each offering very distinct and different environments to explore. Blessed with stunning land and seascapes, and friendly people who are proud of their country, there are many versions of paradise to discover. Drive around in a day, or take a leisurely trip over a few days, or even tour by cycle over a week, or just base yourself at a resort and relax. From the rainforest covered rugged volcanic mountain peaks of Savai'i, to the vast valleys leading down to Upolu's coastline ringed with a necklace of white sandy beaches. The coastline is a wonder in itself, with sparkling white sand beaches, in some places stretching for miles, and here and there are walls of sheer cliffs that drop straight into the Pacific.

 

The Gambling Control Authority (GCA) was established under section 5 of the Casino and Gambling Control Act 2010.

The Casino and Gambling Control Act 2010 has 5 objectives that the GCA is tasked with administering and its success will be measured against the attainment of these objectives. The objectives are:

  1. to promote probity and integrity in gambling; and
  2. to maintain the probity and integrity of persons engaged in gambling in Samoa; and
  3. to promote fairness, integrity and efficiency in the operations of persons engaged in gambling in Samoa; and
  4. to reduce any adverse social impact of gambling; and
  5. to promote a balanced contribution by the gambling industry to tourism and general community benefit and amenity.

The first task for the GCA is to manage the Expression of Interest and Request for Proposal stages in searching Internationally for responsible and reliable casino operators. The GCA has a maximum of two casino licenses available.

The principle notion for casino operation in Samoa is based on the operator running a “junket” based business. Junkets are when an operator brings guests in from another location, houses them, looks after their daily needs while they gamble at his establishment.

This falls in line with the provisions of the Act that do not permit locals entry to the casino. Casino entry is predicated upon fulfilling two pre-requisites, namely, being the holder of a foreign passport and being a registered guest at a resort/hotel.

Wider GCA Responsibilities:

Ultimately, the GCA will see amendments placed before Parliament that will align all gambling based legislation into the one Act, namely the Gambling Control Act 2010 and its amendments.

This consolidation will make gambling legislation and administration streamlined from the current situation where gambling legislation exists in several different pieces of legislation.
