About This Visa
Indian ordinary-passport holders need an entry visa for South Sudan for a normal holiday. MFA encourages foreigners to process entry visas through a South Sudanese embassy in their country. India is served by the Embassy of South Sudan in New Delhi (MEA Protocol).
Do not sell a tourist e-Visa — MFA states South Sudan is developing an eServices portal (including e-Visa), not that one is available yet. Fee is not published on the MFA visas page — confirm with New Delhi.
Documents Required

- Completed and signed visa form (original + copies of supporting papers, including passport photo page and yellow-fever card)
