Where to apply: Luxembourg has no mission in Somalia

Guides tell you a visa is required but never warn that there is nowhere to file it — the mission simply does not exist in your country. We picked the nearest countries that do accept applications and measured the distance.

1
United Arab Emirates 2,191 km
Applications accepted in: Abu Dhabi
2
Turkey 3,918 km
Applications accepted in: Ankara
3
India 3,931 km
Applications accepted in: New Delhi

Distances are measured between country centroids — a rough guide, not a route. Before you travel, confirm with the chosen consulate that it accepts applicants resident elsewhere: many operate a consular district, and out-of-district applications are not always accepted, often with a longer queue.
