Egypt–Sudan border, international border
The Egypt-Sudan border is an international land boundary separating the two North African nations across several hundred kilometers of terrain. It runs through diverse landscapes ranging from desert regions to areas along the Nile River, marking a significant political division in the region.
The boundary was established during the colonial period under British rule and reflects political decisions made in the 19th century. It has shaped relations between Egypt and Sudan since both nations gained independence.
Crossing requires proper documentation and permits for entry into either country. Travelers should check current entry requirements and any restrictions before reaching the border area.
