Somaliland's foreign ministry has congratulated President Lai Ching-te on his upcoming visit to Eswatini and his first trip to Africa since taking office in May of 2024.
Taiwan opened a representative office in Somaliland's capital in August of 2020, and Somaliland reciprocated by opening a similar office in Taipei in September that same year.
Lai is slated to travel to Eswatini from April 22 to 27.
The Presidential Office announced last week that the theme of the state visit is "Celebrating Together for Taiwan and Eswatini, Working Hand in Hand for Common Prosperity."
Lai will be attending celebrations marking the 40th anniversary of King Mswati III's accession to the throne and his 58th birthday.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has said the trip will be a direct flight with no transits.
