Why South Sudan visas get refused — and how we prevent it
Most refusals come down to avoidable mistakes. Explera pre-screens every application against each of these before we file:
Incomplete, inconsistent or poorly-scanned documents
Insufficient or unexplained bank balance and unclear funding
Passport valid for less than 6 months or without blank pages
Weak travel history or an unconvincing purpose of visit for first-time applicants
Unconfirmed or unrealistic itinerary, tickets or hotel bookings

- ✓Maintain a healthy, steady bank balance for 3–6 months before you apply — sudden large deposits raise questions.

- ✓Bundle your visa with flights, hotels and insurance through Explera — a complete, consistent file approves faster.
