Malaysia passport Somalia

Do Malaysians need a visa for Somalia?

No visa needed.

Visa free 30d

You can board a flight to Somalia on a passport from Malaysia with no visa. You may stay up to 30 days per visit. Immigration will still want to see a return ticket, somewhere to stay, and enough money for the trip.

Status
Visa free
Stay permitted

Government fee
Nothing to pay
Typical decision
No application

There is nothing to apply for and nothing to pay.

Book your flight. Any site offering to sell you a Somalia visa, permit or "travel authorisation" for this trip is selling you something you do not need.

If you are travelling on a different passport, Somalia's official entry rules are at etas.gov.so.

Worth knowing

  • Apply only at etas.gov.so. Somalia's Immigration and Citizenship Agency warns against unofficial websites and agents.

How long it takes

Since 1 September 2025 every foreign national must apply online for an entry authorisation before travelling. Keep a copy of the approval to show on arrival.
