Hello Mpalanyi Julius.

Welcome to Expat.com!

You are going off topic.

Concerning the job, you should start a new thread on the Somalia forum and ask your questions.

Thank you,
Aurélie

its been a while since i was in somaliland and i think  all over somalia its the same policy, if you can reach the pedals and control the car, your free to drive. i think since recent elections in somaliland things may have changed slightly, but tbh its a country where a small pay-off at a checkpoint will allow you to proceed to your destination.

Thank you for your help Btwn-Fear-N-Hope!

your welcome!

Hello I m somali but I live in Swisss.
If you have a permi or not it cost  50 dollar
bye

I'm sorry I'm answering this late but to get a license in Somalia it would cost u 150 dollars
And you will take a test

Is it a written test or driving road test?

Hello Brielle1982,

You may not have noticed, but this thread has not been active since 2017. The likelihood of finding some answer here are close to zero.

Instead, I would advise you to create a new thread on the Somalia forum to ask your question. Having a separate, recent thread will give your query more visibility, hence leading to better interaction and more chances of receiving a reply.

Good luck,

Hi Armand,

Its very simple process, if you have license from your country, here in somalia we translate it and issue you somali driving license with small fee.

If you dont have we have issue new one, but you must show your residents permit or your visa duration.

Any assistance feel free to ask.

Regards,
