How much is the Sudanese fund worth and what denomination?
Sudan has seen rampant inflation over the last few years which has meant a few things, firstly most menus are either out of date, or have new prices on them, things now cost a lot more and notes do not come in high denominations
As of November 2023, $1 = 540 SDG
The highest detonation note available is 500, so less than 90 cents. This means even buying something for $10 means handing over a HUGE wads off cash. Our local partners literally had to carry a bag of money reminiscent of a heist movie in order to get the tour working.
For context in 2019 $1 equalled about 45 SGD.
Other notes in circulation include 10’s, 50’s, 100’s and 200’s. It is assumed that higher denomination notes will be become available in 2023, but this is yet to be confirmed.
