Somalia - Consular Information Sheet

advised to depart the country immediately.
Areas of Instability: Looting, banditry, and all forms of violent crime are
common in Somalia, particularly in the capital city of Mogadishu. While

these difficulties are less severe in the northern parts of the country.
There is no functioning national government, and no U.S. protective service
is available. There is no functioning Somali Embassy in Washington D.C.
Medical Information: Anyone entering Somalia despite this warning must
receive immunization against cholera, typhoid, and yellow fever, and obtain
a doctor's advice regarding any other immunizations that might be necessary.

Control's international travelers hotline, telephone (404) 332-4559.
