Who needs a Uganda visa?
Entry requirements for Uganda depend on your nationality, the purpose of your trip and how long you plan to stay. Some travelers enter visa free for short visits while others need a visa or electronic authorization — check the current rules with this consulate general or on the official Uganda immigration portal before booking travel.
Long stays, work and study
