Sudan: Travel Requirements

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, pursuant to the Answer of 9 May 2023 to Question 183490 on Sudan: Travel Requirements, how many Sudanese people have (a) travel documents held by the UK Visa Centre in Sudan and (b) been contacted to provide practical solutions to ensure this does not impede their planned travel.

Answer

Where our records confirm that a customer’s passport is being held in the Visa Application Centre (VAC) in Khartoum, UK Visas and Immigration have contacted all those customers that have been issued or refused visa applications in our VAC in Khartoum and offered them a letter confirming that their passport is securely stored and attaching a digital copy of their passport, that may help support their travel out of Sudan and into a third country.
