Termination of the Designation of 

Sudan for Temporary Protected Status 

AGENCY: U.S. Citizenship and 

Immigration Services, Department of 

Homeland Security. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The designation of Sudan for 

Temporary Protected Status (TPS) is set 

to expire on November 2, 2017. After 

reviewing country conditions and 

consulting with the appropriate U.S. 

Government agencies, the Secretary of 

Homeland Security (Secretary) has 

determined that conditions in Sudan 

have sufficiently improved for TPS 

purposes and no longer support a 

designation for TPS. Therefore, the 

Secretary is terminating the TPS 

designation of Sudan. To provide for an 

orderly transition, this termination is 

effective November 2, 2018, twelve 

months following the end of the current 

designation.

no nationality who last habitually
