Sudan’s TASIS-backed Government of Peace and Unity has reportedly started preparing its 2027 budget. The administration has formed financial committees in Nyala, South Darfur, to lead the process.
According to Sudanese news outlet Al Tanwir, the committees will review spending plans, revenue sources and financial rules.
The move comes as Sudan faces serious economic challenges after years of conflict.
Financial committees begin work in Nyala
Al Tanwir reported that officials held a meeting at the General Secretariat of the Taxation Chamber in Nyala.
Several senior officials attended the meeting. They included Finance Undersecretary Rifa Ahmed Mublal and Budget Director Farah Al-Dour. Ibrahim Adam, a representative of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) financial department, also attended.
The committees will examine spending priorities and possible sources of revenue. They will also review financial laws and prepare budget guidelines for government institutions.
In addition, the committees aim to improve financial planning and organise the budget process.
However, officials have not announced final budget figures or a date for approval.
Sudan’s economic challenges remain severe
The budget preparations come during a difficult period for Sudan.
The ongoing conflict has disrupted businesses, damaged infrastructure and forced millions of people from their homes. As a result, many communities face serious economic hardship.
These conditions also make it difficult for authorities to collect revenue and provide public services.
Meanwhile, the TASIS-backed Government of Peace and Unity operates from Nyala. Mohamed Hassan al-Taishi heads the administration as prime minister.
The administration is separate from the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF)-aligned authorities based in Port Sudan.
Both administrations operate within Sudan’s divided political landscape.
Budget process remains in early stages
The financial committees will now work on the next steps of the proposed 2027 budget.
According to Al Tanwir, their tasks include reviewing financial procedures and preparing guidance for ministries.
However, the available reporting does not confirm whether the administration has secured funding for its plans.
It also remains unclear how much revenue the administration expects to collect or which sectors will receive priority.
Therefore, the budget’s financial impact cannot yet be assessed.
Further announcements may provide details about spending, revenue and implementation.
For now, the reported preparations mark the beginning of a budget planning process, not the approval of a final budget.
