Arrival Process
Immigration queues coil between yellow tape while ceiling fans push humid air thick with jet-fuel vapour and the sweet edge of hibiscus tea brought in by arriving Sudanese families. Officers in crisp khaki study each passport, hunting for Israeli stamps or other red-flag indicators. Once cleared, you'll press fingerprints onto a digital pad, pocket a white arrival card that smells of fresh toner, and walk through glass doors into Sudan's unmistakable dry heat.
