Sudan Business Visa
Going to Sudan on business? Well, you are in luck my friend because despite the completely wrong information you might read around the web, getting a business visa to Sudan is not that difficult. You just have to have persistence and am ample dose of patience (qualities I’m sure you have. ^^ )
The Sudan Business Visa is given to people who intend to stay in Sudan for vacation/holiday purposes for a period of up to one (1) month.
If have such a great time in Sudan during your business trip and want to stay, you can apply for a visa extension at the Passport, Immigration and Nationality Office in Khartoum.
