From what I read yes. Although at least you have an Sudanese embassy in your country (well at least a 'North' Sudan embassy)

I am looking at coming in from UAE and their are some late night flights on flydubai and Air Sharjah that meet the Timatic six-hour TWOV rule for the Royal Jordanian but struggling to get positive confirmation on this from wither airline and equally don't want to be denied boarding at the airport.
(flydubai responded to an email stating we can't provide you with information, you are responsible for the right documents, please contact embassy, but then went on to say we can deny you boarding if you don't have the right documents... how they can not have the right information but then deny boarding I don't know)

Where did you get the departure tax number from?. Only refs I have had to a departure tax is USD/SGP 20 (about US8 if in SGP) or SGP 35 (wikipedia). It used to be SDD 2500 which converted to SGP 25
