EUCAP Field Office Somaliland trains Immigration and Border Control Officers on Document Safety


Last week, the Somaliland Field Office successfully conducted a document safety training for 20 Somaliland Immigration and Border Control Officers, including four female officers.

Officers from different stations across Somaliland actively engaged in the training, strengthening their knowledge and practical skills in passport inspection, identifying printing techniques, and recognizing security features in official documents.

The training also included presentations on the differences between regular passengers and diplomatic travellers, airport security, and safety procedures, as well as open-source intelligence and intelligence-gathering techniques.

This training plays a vital role in enhancing the capacity, professionalism, and operational effectiveness of Immigration Officers, while also contributing to the improvement of the quality of services provided to the community.
