Sudan – Parallel markets in Sudan witnessed a continued historic rise in the US dollar exchange rate on Wednesday, October 15, 2025, confirming that Sudan is experiencing a rising dollar.

Highlights
  • Historic leap and expansion in trading range
  • Gap between cities and disparity in monetary sources
  • The official price is far from the market
  • Upward trend since summer 2025

Prices ranged between 3,550 and 3,700 Sudanese pounds per dollar, according to local price monitoring platforms. This is evidence that Sudan is suffering from a high dollar value on the parallel market.

This range shows a difference of approximately 150 pounds between cities, reflecting the country’s geographic fragmentation and the divergence in foreign exchange sources as the dollar continues to rise in Sudan.

Historic leap and expansion in trading range

The dollar hit an all-time high of 3,700 pounds in some areas, while it hit a low of 3,550 pounds.

price monitoring reports indicate that the trading range expanded this week with the increase in electronic transactions and increased reliance on exchange brokerage applications, indicating that the dollar’s rise in Sudan is continuing.

The EGP has been repeatedly exceeding the EGP 3,700 threshold since the beginning of the week, marking the demarcation of a new price zone higher than the levels recorded in August and September.

Gap between cities and disparity in monetary sources

Field data revealed a difference of 150 Egyptian pounds between the highest and lowest prices in different cities. This discrepancy is attributed to logistical obstacles, road safety, and differences in foreign exchange sources between coastal and inland areas.

Traders reported that variations in foreign transfers and cash delivery conditions lead to a constant shift in the breakeven point between bids and offers throughout the day, amid increased currency speculation.

The official price is far from the market

According to the Central Bank of Sudan’s daily bulletin, official rates remain significantly lower than those on the parallel market, reflecting the widening gap between book pricing and actual market pricing.

Local economic platforms believe that this divergence is the result of the absence of a unified mechanism for the foreign exchange market and the cessation of most banks from regularly updating their currencies since the outbreak of the war.

This has made traders actually rely on the parallel market price to price imports and commercial invoices.

Upward trend since summer 2025

On August 17, 2025, the dollar had reached 3,270 pounds on the parallel market, as documented by Radio Dabanga at the time.

Since then, the pound has rapidly depreciated, exceeding 3,500 and then 3,700 pounds in October, as confidence in the ability of official channels to meet commercial demand has dwindled.

Economic reports show that the value of the pound has fallen by more than 560% compared to its pre-war level, due to the collapse of production and logistics chains and a shortage of hard currency amid the continued rise of the dollar in Sudan.
