South Sudan ordinary passports: Bahamas visa-free leisure visits
The Bahamas' statutory rule requires a leisure-visitor visa only for citizens of the finite Second Schedule cohort; that schedule and the current Ministry list name Sudan but not the distinct state of South Sudan.
- Applies to an ordinary South Sudan passport holder visiting The Bahamas for a short leisure stay.
- The governing Regulations impose a visitor visa where the traveller is a citizen of a Second Schedule country or travels for education or employment. South Sudan is outside that finite designated-country cohort.
- The Ministry's current April 2026 list independently repeats Sudan in the visa-required cohort without treating South Sudan as Sudan.
- Education, employment, residence, special documents, carrier checks and final immigration admission remain outside this leisure-visitor baseline.
