This information is for general guidance only. Meeting the requirements does not guarantee your application will be approved.
Somalia's federal eVisa/eTAS applies to areas under federal government control and does not cover Somaliland, which operates its own entry and visa arrangements. Travellers heading to Somaliland must follow that region's separate requirements rather than relying on the federal eTAS.
If your itinerary includes both, check the requirements for each separately before travelling.
