The prices of domestic and international postal services in Samoa have gone up by 25%
Samoa Post's acting general manager, Tupe Ualolo Nun Yan, says the tariff increase is inevitable and long overdue.
He explains that postal costs have gone up considerably since the postal tariff review for international mail in 2006, and the domestic mail review in 1994.
The increase is to offset the higher postal costs which have been caused by rising overseas and domestic delivery charges, freight, VAGST and inflation.
