The Federal Government of Somalia has officially implemented a new biometric system to secure borders, address human trafficking, reduce illegal immigration, and prevent domestic and international security threats. The system is supported by the United States Government.<\/p>\n

The implementation of the system follows a four-day training course in Mogadishu, where U.S. experts trained Somali immigration officials on the use of the Personal Identification Secure Comparison and Evaluation System (PISCES) \u2013 a biometric program developed by the United States Government and used at major ports of entry into the country.<\/p>\n

The system allows Somali immigration authorities to directly check international alert lists, detect fraudulent IDs, and track the movements of suspicious individuals.<\/p>\n

Mustaf Dhuxullow, Director General of the Somali Immigration and Citizenship Authority, said:<\/p>\n

“This is not just a technological development, it is a step to protect our people and build public trust.”<\/p>\n

The training was facilitated by the U.S. Embassy in Somalia.<\/p>\n

The Somali government also introduced a new third-generation passport with biometric chips and robust anti-forgery systems, in line with international standards. This provides citizens with secure identification and limits its illegal use by criminal networks.<\/p>\n

The U.S. Embassy in Mogadishu has worked closely with the Somali Immigration Service and U.S. security agencies to ensure the successful implementation of these new systems.<\/p>\n
