The Cabinet, under Prime Minister Ibrahim Mahlab, approved on Wednesday a presidential bill for exemption of visa requirements between Egypt and South Sudan.
The decision covers only holders of diplomatic, special and service passports.
In November, a memorandum of understanding was signed between the two states to that effect.
Under this deal, the aforementioned holders will be allowed to enter the other country without a visa and stay there for a period of not more than 90 days.
