Currency

Sudanese Pound (SDG) = 100 piasters. Notes are in denominations of SDG50, 20, 10, 5, 2 and 1. Coins are in denominations of 50, 20, 10, 5 and 1 piasters.

The Sudanese Pound has replaced the Sudanese Dinar, which was phased out on 30 June 2007. 1 Sudanese Pound = 100 Sudanese Dinars = 1,000 old Sudanese Pounds.

Currency Exchange

Currency should be exchanged only at official bureaux de change and banks, and receipts should be retained. There are severe penalties for changing money on the black market.

Credit/Debit Cards and ATMs

Due to recent conflicts, it is recommended to bring plenty of cash rather than rely on card transactions in Sudan.

Traveller's Cheques

These are generally not recommended but should be in a major currency.

Currency Restrictions

Restrictions apply.

Banking Hours

Sat-Thurs 0830-1200.
