Sanctions
The United States restricts foreign aid to Sudan because Sudan supports international terrorism, is a military dictatorship, and won't repay its debt.
The United States placed sanctions on Sudan due to terrorism, but South Sudan, which separated from Sudan and is now an independent country, is exempt.
American people are not allowed to do any business with petroleum or petrochemical industries in Sudan unless they have approval from the OFAC.
Also, goods cannot imported from certain areas of Sudan without approval by the OFAC.
Except for food, clothes, and medicine to help people, exports are prohibited to certain areas of Sudan. No technology or services can be exported to them.
Australia also has sanctions against Sudan against giving them various goods, products, and services.
From what I can find, Sudan has a lot of sanctions placed on it from various countries because of their affiliation with terrorist acts, dictatorship, and genocide. However, I do not seem to be able to find and active sanctions from Sudan toward other countries. I'm sure that they have sour feelings towards South Sudan since its independence in 2011, but I did not find any actual sanctions against them.
Countries outside of Sudan have sanctions against Sudan because they do not trust them and they are unreliable to pay off debt.
Working with Sudan depends a lot on how they are promising to act. If they play nice, then sanctions are removed, but they seem stubborn to follow suite with the rest of the world in treating its citizens with respect regardless of religion or skin color.
South Sudan I'm sure will have less sanctions, if any at all, because they have seceded from Sudan. South Sudan has no inclinations for terrorist activity, and are quite the opposite of Sudan. That's why they fought to separate from them. Doing trade with Sudan should prove to be less of a hassle in the future once their new country is established.
