Somaliland ↗Somaliland issues its own visas, separate from the federal Somali government; arrange the visa or an arrival letter through a Somaliland liaison office or a local operator before you fly.
Somaliland ↗Foreigners leaving Hargeisa are usually required to travel with an armed police escort; your hotel or operator arranges it.
Somaliland ↗Read your government's travel advice for Somalia, which has a separate section on Somaliland; some areas, especially in the east, carry advice against all travel.
Somaliland ↗Book a travel-clinic visit several weeks ahead; ask about malaria prevention and whether a yellow fever vaccination certificate is required for your route.
Hargeisa ↗Move by hotel-arranged car, not on foot, after dark; ask the hotel which areas to avoid and which trips need an escort.
Hargeisa ↗Dress modestly: women cover hair, arms and legs; men wear long trousers; alcohol is not sold or allowed.
