Sudanese nationals' voluntary return facilities
The Sudanese government has launched new measures to facilitate the return of Sudanese nationals from Egypt through voluntary repatriation flights. This includes issuing a free "Emergency Travel Document" through the Sudanese embassy in Cairo to organize and ease the return process, especially for those who entered Egypt illegally or have lost their documents. The increasing number of individuals wishing to return is attributed to the rising waves of returnees, with more than 538,000 Sudanese having returned from Egypt between January 2024 and February 2026. Of these, 87% are among the total returnees from neighboring countries. Organizing these flights and improving documentation procedures are important steps to reduce chaos, along with plans to enhance oversight through a specialized Sudanese police team. These decisions come in tandem with Egyptian security campaigns aimed at regulating residency permits and deporting overstayers. Egypt continues to host over 10 million foreign nationals, with Sudanese among the largest groups.
