British consulates in American Samoa

American Samoa is on gov.uk's list for Los Angeles, thousands of miles across the Pacific. Almost everything a British national needs here is done online.

Which British consulate covers American Samoa?

gov.uk lists American Samoa in the district of the British Consulate General in Los Angeles, the office that handles emergency travel documents, notarial appointments and consular help for people here (its district on gov.uk).

What you can settle without going to the consulate

Some of it can be done tonight, from a laptop.

  • You can request a J1 no objection statement online from the Embassy: J1 no objection.
  • You can renew an adult British passport online with HM Passport Office, which sends it back by courier: Passport renewal.
  • You can apply for a first passport for a child born in the U.S., and your countersignatory may hold a U.S. passport: First or child passport.

    • A notarial appointment is worth it only after a local notary has said no; gov.uk recommends trying a notary first.
