The Republic of the Sudan started issuing electronic passports to citizens in May 2009. The new electronic passport will be issued in three categories:
- The citizen's passport (ordinary passport) will be issued to ordinary citizens and will contain 48 pages. This passport is valid for ten years.
- Businessmen and women who need to travel often will be issued a commercial passport that will contain 64 pages. This passport is valid for seven years.
- Smaller passports that contain 32 pages only will be issued to children.
The microprocessor chip will contain the holder's information. The cost of a new passport for adults will be approximately SDG10000 in 2021.

The Sudanese passport contains 62 pages, and because Arabic is a written language from right to left, the passport opening starts from right to left.
