Argentina to Sudan visa requirements

Argentine ordinary passport holders need a visa to enter Sudan for tourism. There is no visa-free, visa-on-arrival or reliable eVisa channel for Argentine nationals, and Sudan has no embassy in Argentina, so the visa must be obtained in advance from a Sudanese mission in a third country. Note: Sudan is under a "do not travel" advisory due to the civil war that began in April 2023. As of 2026, a holder of an ordinary Argentine passport must obtain a visa before traveling to Sudan; Sudan is not in any visa-waiver, visa-on-arrival or guaranteed eVisa arrangement with Argentina. Sudan operates a visa system that historically required application at a Sudanese embassy or consulate, with documents including a passport valid at least 6 months, photos, an invitation or hotel confirmation, a flight itinerary and proof of funds. Sudan has launched online/eVisa facilities for some nationalities, but availability for Argentine citizens is not assured and processing is unpredictable. Critically, Sudan has no diplomatic mission in Argentina, so Argentine applicants must approach a Sudanese embassy in a neighboring or third country or use an authorized travel agent. The country has been in an active civil war between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces since 15 April 2023; Khartoum International Airport only resumed limited commercial flights in early 2026 and remains subject to drone attacks. The US, Australian, Irish and most Western governments maintain "do not travel" advisories. Given conflicting and limited information on a no-visa channel and the security situation, the conservative and correct verdict is visa-required. Travelers should verify the latest rules directly with a Sudanese diplomatic mission before any travel and reconsider non-essential travel entirely.
