Travel advice for Sudan

Australia advises avoiding all travel for Sudan.

Avoid all travel to Sudan because fighting between the Sudanese military and the RSF militia is underway in Khartoum and other parts of the country, and the situation can change rapidly. Khartoum airport is almost continuously closed, while electricity, internet and telephone services may fail intermittently.

Avoid all travel to Sudan because armed confrontations between the army and the RSF occur throughout the country and borders are only sporadically open. If you are in Sudan, stay indoors, avoid the streets, and keep informed through reliable news channels.

Avoid all travel to Sudan because armed conflict, civil unrest and volatility make travel extremely dangerous. Leave if this can be done safely. Fighting and drone attacks occur nationwide, including at airports in Khartoum and Port Sudan, while terrorism, violent crime and disrupted services create severe risks. Border areas are especially hazardous because of armed groups, disputed territory, banditry, smuggling and landmines, and land crossings should not be attempted.

Avoid all travel to Sudan and defer any journeys because armed conflict, civil unrest, crime, terrorism and kidnappings make travel dangerous. International airports in Khartoum and Port Sudan are not operating. If already in Sudan, remain extremely careful, avoid gatherings and concentrations of security forces, minimise movement in public spaces, and do not monitor protests. Czech consular assistance is very limited.

Avoid all travel to Sudan because the security situation is unstable. Estonia has no embassy in Sudan, so consular assistance is available from the nearest European Union member state representation.

Germany advises avoiding all travel for Sudan.

Hungary advises avoiding all travel for Sudan.

Do not travel to Sudan because ongoing armed conflict and civil unrest have caused deaths and injuries, and the volatile security situation may deteriorate further. Terrorism and kidnapping are risks throughout the country, landmines threaten rural areas, and demonstrations can cause violent clashes, particularly in Khartoum; travel outside Khartoum, including Darfur, generally requires local permits. Medical services and medication are extremely limited, while commercial departure options are limited and carry risk.

Evacuate and do not travel to Sudan because fighting between the Sudanese armed forces and the Rapid Support Forces continues and the situation is extremely dangerous. Port Sudan is also under the evacuation warning because drone attacks by the Rapid Support Forces have been reported and may continue, with a risk of rapid deterioration. Anyone already in Sudan should leave immediately, regardless of purpose.

Avoid all travel to Sudan because the army and RSF are in conflict, with widespread violence and drone attacks nationwide. Darfur, Kordofan and Blue Nile face especially severe fighting, violence threatens Red Sea shipping, and serious crime includes robbery, looting, sexual violence, kidnapping and carjacking. Flooding can occur from July to September, particularly in southern Kordofan, central and eastern Sudan and along the Nile; healthcare and emergency services are unreliable.

Avoid all travel to Sudan and leave the country because serious, uncontrolled security conditions and armed fighting create widespread risks. Violence, crime, terrorism, disease, disrupted basic services and communications, and dangerous road travel are widespread, with a particularly high risk of abduction in Darfur. Houthi militias also attack ships in the Red Sea.

Avoid all travel to Sudan because of the security situation. Swedish citizens in Sudan are also urged to leave the country.

Avoid all travel to Sudan because of unrest, crime, kidnapping, terrorism, landmines, and health threats. Armed conflict is especially volatile in Kordofan, Darfur, Khartoum, and Omdurman, and the U.S. government cannot provide routine or emergency consular services. Crime and fraudulent checkpoints are common, medical care is extremely limited, and drone strikes have disrupted flight services to Port Sudan.

Avoid non-essential travel to Sudan and all travel to parts of the country. Conflict has severely affected emergency services, which are often unresponsive. Entry requires compliance with passport, visa, health and customs rules, and leaving the Red Sea State requires a travel permit.
