The Fono Aoao Faitulafono (Legislative Assembly) of Samoa has 51 members representing 51 electoral constituencies. Until 1991 voting for candidates in traditional territorial constituencies was by matai (chiefs) suffrage only. After a 1990 plebiscite, universal suffrage was introduced with a voting age of 21.

Only registered matais may stand in territorial electorates.
