Somalia at a glance

Region	Africa
Power	Type C/G sockets, 220/380 V, 50 Hz

On power, you are in luck: both Irish outlets and Somalia's use Type G, so many of your chargers should fit as-is. Voltage differs too (220/380 V there versus 230/400 V at home), so check for a dual-voltage label before plugging in. Full plug and voltage guide for Somalia.
