The President of the Federal Government of Somalia, Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, spoke for the first time about the new system implemented by his government, the E-visa Program, which has been the talk of the Somali community in recent days.<\/p>\n

The President, who delivered a multifaceted speech yesterday at an event to present the achievements of the DanQaran Government during its three-year term, said that it will not be acceptable for someone to enter the country with a foreign passport without a visa.<\/p>\n

He pointed out to President Hassan Sheikh that the country is moving towards digitalization, and that changes have been made to various services that were previously provided by the Federal Government.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou cannot enter another country with a Somali passport without a visa, in the same way, a foreigner or a Somali citizen with a foreign passport cannot enter our country without a visa,\u201d said President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud.<\/p>\n

The President also noted that a person with a Somali passport does not need a visa, and is a citizen who has the right to enter the country without a visa.<\/p>\n

“A person with a foreign passport, whether Somali or white, is the same. If a person holds a foreign passport, we are Somalis, and now we hold a foreign passport. I ask you, is there a Somali passport that allows you to go to any foreign country without a visa? The answer is no, and you cannot enter the country without a visa on foreign passports,” said President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud.<\/p>\n

The president’s statement comes as the E-Visa program was implemented in the country on September 1, making it legal for foreigners to enter Somalia.<\/p>\n
