Welcome to Uganda! Your journey to the Pearl of Africa begins here. To ensure a smooth and unforgettable adventure, let us guide you through obtaining your Uganda Tourist Visa. Explore our step-by-step guide below.
Effective July 2016 its mandatory for all travellers to apply and obtain Visa online via the Uganda Electronic Visa Application System prior to being granted boarding.
As a foreign traveler, you'll need a tourist visa for Uganda to enjoy the country's stunning national parks, wildlife reserves, gorilla trekking, and cultural tours. It's your ticket to stay in Uganda for up to 90 days, and it's essential to comply with Ugandan immigration laws. Without it, you might face entry denial.
Additionally, the tourist visa helps Uganda manage its tourist arrivals, prevents illegal immigration, and ensures visitors follow local laws. Plus, getting your visa in advance streamlines your airport experience, making your journey smoother.
