Where to apply: Belgium has no mission in Sudan

Guides tell you a visa is required but never warn that there is nowhere to file it — the mission simply does not exist in your country. We picked the nearest countries that do accept applications and measured the distance.

1
Ethiopia 1,195 km
Applications accepted in: Addis Abeba
2
Uganda 1,298 km
Applications accepted in: Kampala
3
Egypt 1,553 km
Applications accepted in: Cairo

Distances are measured between country centroids — a rough guide, not a route. Before you travel, confirm with the chosen consulate that it accepts applicants resident elsewhere: many operate a consular district, and out-of-district applications are not always accepted, often with a longer queue.
