A directive released by the Minister of Interior, Abdalle Mohamed Arab, has given all undocumented foreigners a deadline of three days to leave the region.

“The Minister of Interior and Security, Abdalle Mohamed Arab, has issued an order regarding foreign nationals who do not possess legal documentation for the Republic of Somaliland,” the decree stated, which was released today, Tuesday.

The three-day period begins on Wednesday, April 30, and ends on May 2, 2025.

The directive did not clarify who exactly is considered a foreigner under this order.

Somaliland, known for being relatively stable compared to other parts of Somalia, hosts a diverse population, including Ethiopian migrants, people displaced from southern Somalia, and some from countries such as Yemen, Syria, and others.

In 2022, Somaliland deported thousands of people from the city of Las Anod, many of whom were from the southern Somalia.

Authorities claimed they were undocumented foreigners causing insecurity in the area.

Recently, international media reported that U.S. President Donald Trump was considering relocating Palestinians from Gaza to Somaliland and Puntland, regions perceived to be safer than the rest of Somalia.
