🇸🇩 Sudan visa requirements for Yemeni citizens

Entry rules for Yemen passport holders

Holders of a valid passport from Yemen can travel to Sudan for tourism or short business trips without applying for a visa, for stays of up to 30 days. You'll typically just need a passport valid for at least six months beyond your arrival date, and you may be asked to show proof of onward travel or sufficient funds at the border.

The 30-day limit applies to the visit itself — if you plan to stay longer, work, or study in Sudan, you'll need to apply for the appropriate visa or permit before traveling.

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

This is not reciprocal — traveling the other way, Sudanese citizens need to arrange entry to Yemen in advance (visa required).

Across Northern Africa as a whole, 1 of 6 destinations are open to Yemeni travelers without arranging a visa in advance.
