Sudan visa for Bangladeshis

SECURITY WARNING: the UK government (FCDO, last updated 11 May 2026) advises against all travel to Sudan because of ongoing military conflict, with only the Hala'ib Triangle and Bir Tawil Trapezoid at the lower level of all but essential travel. Ceasefires have repeatedly been broken, the British Embassy in Khartoum is closed, and evacuation is not being offered. For entry, UK advice says a visa is required and is obtained from a Sudanese embassy. We found no official page for Bangladeshi applicants and could not open a Sudanese embassy page for New Delhi, so Bangladesh-specific procedure, fee and processing time are marked for confirmation. Last checked 6 November 2026.
