Entry Requirements

ENTRY REQUIREMENTS/REGISTRATION WITH LOCAL POLICE: A passport and visa are required. Visas may be obtained from the Sudanese Embassy in Washington, D.C. for $50. The government of Sudan does not allow persons with passports bearing an Israeli visa or entry/exit stamps to enter the country. American citizens who were born in Sudan and have Sudanese identification (in addition to a U.S. passport) may apply for a visa at Khartoum International Airport . Visas are not available at other airports or at the border. Travelers must pay an airport departure tax of U.S. $20.

The Sudan People's Liberation Army (SPLA) requires travelers to areas under its control to obtain travel permits from the Nairobi office of the Sudan Relief and Rehabilitation Association (SRRA). At times, the SRRA will not issue travel permits to persons holding Sudanese government visas. Other opposition groups issue their own travel permits.

Travelers to Sudan are required to register with police headquarters within three days of arrival. Travelers must obtain police permission before moving to another location in Sudan and must register with police within 24 hours of arrival at the new location. These regulations are strictly enforced. Even with proper documentation, travelers in Sudan have been subjected to delays and detention by Sudan 's security forces, especially when traveling outside Khartoum . Authorities expect roadblocks to be respected.
