🇸🇩 Does a Sudanese need a visa for Syria 🇸🇾?

Visa-free

No. Sudanese passport holders can visit Syria without a visa; the border officer decides how long you may stay.

Checked against Wikipedia's list of visa requirements for Sudanese citizens on 2026-10-04. Entry rules change: confirm with the embassy of Syria or its official government website before you travel.

⚠ U.S. State Department travel advisory for Syria: Level 4: Do Not Travel (updated 11 December 2025). It is written for U.S. citizens; read the advisory before you book.

What this means for your trip

Visa-free entry lets you arrive with a valid passport and pass border control without applying in advance.

The permitted length of stay is set at the border; ask the officer if it is not stamped in your passport.

Your passport should normally be valid for at least six months beyond your planned departure date and have blank pages for stamps; many countries apply this rule.
