Yes โ€” Congolese citizens need a visa to enter Sudan, normally arranged through an embassy or consulate before traveling.

Entry rules for DR Congo passport holders

Congolese citizens must obtain a visa before traveling to Sudan. Applications generally go through a Sudan embassy or consulate and require a completed form, passport photos, proof of accommodation and onward travel, and sometimes travel insurance. Start the process several weeks before your planned trip, as processing times vary.

Entry rules can change at short notice. Always confirm current requirements with the official Sudan immigration authority or your nearest embassy before booking.

How this compares

The Congolese passport ranks #181 worldwide, opening 43 destinations without a visa arranged in advance (16 visa-free, 26 with a visa on arrival and 1 with an eTA). Sudan is not among them โ€” it is one of the 113 destinations that still require an embassy visa or an application before departure.

In the other direction, Sudanese citizens traveling to DR Congo face a different rule: e-visa.

Northern Africa is closed to spontaneous travel for Congolese passport holders: none of its 6 destinations can be entered without an application first.
