South Sudan visa for Emirati citizens

For UAE passport holders considering a trip to South Sudan, the convenient e-visa system streamlines entry, typically involving a fee of around $100. With four distinct visa types available, including tourist and business options, most travel purposes are well-covered for this unique destination. Flights from major UAE hubs like Dubai typically connect through Nairobi or Addis Ababa to Juba International Airport, a journey often lasting 6-7 hours. While the UAE boasts ultra-modern skyscrapers and a desert-adapted luxury, South Sudan offers visitors a rugged frontier experience with its expansive Sudd wetlands and vibrant Dinka culture, promising a truly distinct adventure. Remember that while the UAE Dirham is strong, US Dollars are widely accepted alongside the South Sudanese Pound in Juba.
