How approval likelihood is calculated

PassportRoute combines passport strength, the visa requirement for Libya, your income, savings, employment, age and travel history into a 0–100 score. The bands below show what your final number means in practice.

High likelihood (70–100)

Strong profile. With complete documents, approval is the expected outcome for most Sudan applicants travelling to Libya.

Medium likelihood (40–69)

Mixed profile. Approval is realistic but the consulate will scrutinise specific weak signals (savings, ties to Sudan, prior travel).

Low likelihood (0–39)

Marginal profile. Build travel history with easier destinations first, increase savings and address the negative factors before re-applying for Libya.
