Sudan visas

Who needs a visa to visit Sudan

Except if they come from one of the countries free from visa requirements, all visitors to Sudan are required to get a visa from one of the Sudanese diplomatic missions abroad. All visitors must have passports that are valid for a minimum of six months beyond the date of their arrival.

There are still a few tasks to complete once you are in Sudan, so the process of obtaining a visa for that country doesn't finish there. A Sudanese visa is not difficult to obtain if you take the appropriate requirements, although there is some paperwork to fill out.

Visitors must arrive at any port of entry with a valid passport, entrance visa, or entry permission, according to the government of Sudan. The majority of visitors must get a Sudanese entrance visa from an embassy before travelling there; they are NOT accessible at the airport.

Entry into Sudan

When travelling from an area where yellow fever is present, provide your World Health Organization (WHO) card.

Before you travel, obtain your visa. For the most recent information on visas, see the website of the Embassy of the Republic of the Sudan. Foreign queries should be directed to the closest embassy or consulate of Sudan.

When arriving at any port of entry in Sudan, the government of the Republic of the Sudan requires U.S. citizens to show a passport with at least six months of remaining validity as well as an entrance visa or entry permission.
