Breaking News: Drivers Licenses Have Arrived

Drivers who have been carrying receipts as proof that they have valid drivers licenses can now pick up their official American Samoa drivers licenses from the Office of Motor Vehicles.

Its now been several years since OMV stopped issuing proper drivers licenses apparently because of a payment issue with the US company that was contracted to supply the federal standards licenses for American Samoa drivers.

But OMV, received a new supply of the license cards on Monday and it is again issuing American Samoa drivers licenses.

Acting Commissioner of Public Safety, Vaimaga Maiava said all those who were issued receipts inlieu of licenses should go to OMV to have their photos taken and get their drivers licenses,

Maiava apologizes to members of the public who have had to wait awhile and thanks them for their patience and understanding.

The renewal and issuance of new drivers licenses is Monday to Friday from  8:00 am to 3:30pm.

The Acting Commissioner also asks drivers who are still using paper license plates to please report to OMV and pick up their license plates which have been available for some time.
