Somalia Becomes First to Adopt AmTag System

The United Kingdom government has praised Somalia for being the first country globally to adopt the AmTag system—a cutting-edge technology designed to enhance ammunition traceability and accountability.

This landmark move is expected to significantly curb the diversion of ammunition to unauthorized users, bolster national and regional security, and play a crucial role in countering illicit arms trafficking.

British officials hailed Somalia’s commitment to arms control and transparency, noting that the adoption of AmTag demonstrates international leadership and sets a strong precedent for other nations seeking to tighten arms governance.
