What this document is
Sudan issues an electronic passport. A first application needs the National Number from the General Administration of Civil Registry, or a national ID card. Abroad, applicants appear in person at a Sudanese embassy; the passport is printed in Sudan and sent back by diplomatic pouch. An adult’s Sudanese passport is valid for 10 years, a child’s under 11 for 5 years.

What we fix for free, and what AI fixes
Fixed for free
- Background. Replaced with the one this document asks for: plain light background without textures or noticeable gradients.
- Head tilt. Straightened if the head leans slightly to one side.
- Frame. Exactly 40 × 50 mm, by the document’s rules.
- A light shadow on one side of the face. Gently brightened.
- File and print sheet. A file to the document’s rules and a 10 × 15 or A4 sheet to print.
What can't be fixed for free, AI correction fixes
- Hard shadows and uneven light on the face.
- A smile, raised brows or a half-open mouth. Cropping keeps the face it was given.
- Too few pixels. If the original is smaller than 472 × 591 px, enlarging it only blurs the face.
- Clothing and pose. Shoulders out of frame, body turned away from the camera.
Glare on the lenses. Take the glasses off or turn away from the light source and shoot again.
Why these photos get rejected — and how to fix each one
Sudan-specific things to know
- Sudan's embassies name no photograph at all for the passport: the applicant appears in person and the passport is printed in Sudan; the pages do not say how the portrait is taken.
- Fees are in dollars in Washington ($180, rising to $250 after 30 June 2026) and in pounds in London (£200), paid by cash or money order, never by card.

Where these numbers come from
Source: Embassies of the Republic of the Sudan in Washington D.C. and in London. Last checked against the official page on 1 Oct 2026.
What the source confirms
- Embassy of Sudan in Washington D.C., «Passport Renewals»: the embassy issues new passports and renews expired passports for eligible Sudanese citizens; applicants make an appointment and appear in person on the date, bringing a copy of their expired passport or national number; for applicants below 18 a national number document of either parent; a police report for a lost passport; the fees are $180 for adults and $90 for applicants below 18 (reverting to $250 and $125 after 30 June 2026).
- Same page, after the application: the passport is printed in Sudan and sent back to the embassy by diplomatic pouch, typically within 30 to 45 days; applicants collect it in person with the transaction receipt and their ID, or by mail with a USPS, FedEx or UPS return envelope with a tracking number paid by the applicant; payment is accepted by cash, US postal money order, company check or cashier's check, made payable to «Embassy of Sudan» — no personal checks and no cards.
- Embassy of Sudan in London, «Passport Service» (Arabic, my translation): the rules for the ordinary electronic passport — show the original or a copy of the national number or the personal national card for the first issue; bring the original passport for a renewal or a damaged passport; the fee is £200 and the passport is valid 10 years; for the electronic passport of a child one parent attends before the certifying authority (or presents a documented consent), the fee for children under 11 is £100 and the passport is valid 5 years; a Sudanese minor's passport cannot be issued through a foreign father without the Sudanese mother's consent; fees are paid in cash or by postal cheque to the Sudan Embassy in London.
