The Wikipedia article on visa requirements for Somali Citizens lists three countries that refuse admission to Somali citizens: the US, Australia & New Zealand.

I know the US travel ban is true—it was all over the news— but I had never heard of Australia and NZ having a travel ban for Somalis? Is this actually true, or is this a classic case of Wikipedia being a less than reliable source?

  Note that as far as Somalia is concerned, the US travel ban is only strictly a ban for immigrant visas; non-immigrant visas can still be granted in principle, but they're subjected to higher scrutiny. See Section 2(h)(ii) of Presidential Proclamation 9645. Of course, this additional scrutiny may make it very difficult for a Somali national to obtain a visa at all.

The Wikipedia article conflicts with information available directly from the New Zealand government.

Following the links on the NZ government visa page here allows one to enter "Somalia" for country of passport, and returns a screen showing that a Visitor Visa is available and requires these things:

• You must show that you’re a genuine tourist or visitor and intend to leave New Zealand at the end of your stay.




• You must have enough money to live on while you’re in New Zealand or have an acceptable sponsor.




• You must have a ticket to leave New Zealand or be sponsored for the cost of your onward travel.

Further to the answer for New Zealand, the article also appears to be incorrect regarding Australia. The Australian government's visa options website also allows selection of Somalia as country of passport, and presents visa options for tourism or business travel.
