Can a Romanian traveller visit Sudan?
Sudan: active armed conflict — most embassies and missions are closed
Sudan has been in armed conflict since April 2023. Khartoum's airports remain closed; many embassies have suspended visa services or relocated to neighbouring countries. Travel is strongly advised against by most foreign ministries (US, UK, FCDO, Smartraveller AU all at the highest advisory tier). Visa policy on paper may not reflect operational reality.
We don't yet have a verified record for Romanian travellers heading to Sudan for tourism. The links below take you straight to Sudan's embassy and official immigration portal — the authoritative answer lives there.
