Sample Q&As

See what's inside

Plain-English questions. Law-backed answers. Every answer cites the exact article.

🟢 Labor Law
Do I have to give an employee a written contract?
Yes. Every employment relationship must be documented in writing. Verbal agreements are not enforceable for key terms such as salary, duration, and job role. The contract must state the nature of work, location, and compensation.
Labour Code · Arts. 16–18
🔵 Company Law
Can one person start a company alone in Somalia?
Yes. A single individual aged 18 or over can found a company. Multiple individuals or other companies can also join together as founders. The minimum age of 18 is a firm requirement — no one under 18 can be a founding member.
Companies Law · Art. 12
🟡 Investment Law
Can the government seize my foreign investment?
Registered foreign investment is protected from expropriation except in cases of overriding public interest. If expropriation does occur, the law requires prompt and adequate compensation at fair market value, which must be freely transferable abroad.
Foreign Investment Law · Art. 18
