Uganda E visa: More information
Every type of Uganda eVisa offered by the government is processed online, without having to go to the embassy to get one. In Visagov, the application form has been simplified to help the user with possible errors that could jeopardise the approval of the application. You will be able to complete it in only a few minutes in your own language.
You must print out the approved document and present it together with your passport on arrival. Please note that each government reserves the right of admission to the country. If you lie on the form or omit relevant information that may pose a threat to the security of the country, you will not be allowed to access Uganda, even if your visa is approved.
