Thu 10 December 2020:
“The head of Sudan’s Transitional Military Council, Lieutenant General Abdel Fattah Al-Burhan, issued a decision cancelling republican decree number 179 for 2001, which provided visa-free entry for Syrians,” the statement indicated.
The Sudanese Interior Ministry announced on Wednesday the halt of visa-free entry for Syrians.
This announcement came in a statement and follows 20 years of visa-free entry for Syrians.
According to the decision: “Syrians need to get a visa through the official channels before entering the country.”
The number of Syrians in Sudan is around 250,000, and they have been welcomed in the country – the only one in the region allowing Syrians to enter without a visa.
