What the City Association Means

Shendi is associated with TPRA geographic code 261.

The locality codes below reproduce TPRA’s consolidated geographic table presented to ITU in 2018; they are allocation references, not proof that an exchange is currently operating. War has caused extensive damage to Sudan’s telecommunications infrastructure, and communications disruptions were still being reported in conflict-affected areas in June 2026. Availability can differ by locality, operator, power supply and security conditions. A code also cannot reveal a subscriber, current carrier or live physical location.
