This is a list of the rivers in Sudan . From a hydrological point of view, Sudan is predominantly influenced by the Nile. Most of the East African country is in its catchment area. However, the Nile in Sudan loses water primarily due to the desert climate. Almost all of the water comes from either equatorial Africa or Ethiopia .

There are also some coastal rivers, which are mostly dry due to the high aridity . In the west of the country there are connections to the Chad Basin and other endorheic basins.
