UK FCDO Advises Against All Travel to Sudan
The UK FCDO advises against all travel to Sudan due to ongoing military conflict in Khartoum and other areas. The British Embassy in Khartoum is closed, and no consular support is available. The UK government is no longer evacuating people; travelers must use their own judgment to reach departure points and cover costs themselves. Travel insurance may be invalidated if traveling against advice.
Impact and considerations
Sudan's security situation is severe; companies should avoid sending employees and focus on evacuation plans for those present.
