Somalia visa for Gambian citizens

Gambia passport holders benefit from a convenient visa on arrival process for travel to Somalia, which permits a maximum stay of 30 days across its three available tourist visa types. Given the considerable geographical span separating West and East Africa, Gambian travelers typically connect through major hubs like Nairobi or Addis Ababa, rather than direct flights from Banjul to Mogadishu. Beyond managing a 3-hour time difference upon arrival, visitors should also be aware that the US Dollar is widely accepted alongside the Somali Shilling for everyday transactions in Somalia.
