What is a Uganda single-entry visa?
A single-entry visitor visa is designed for a trip in which the traveller enters Uganda once for the permitted purpose and period. It is suitable only when the itinerary matches the category and the traveller does not plan repeated exits and re-entries. Check the issued validity and stay conditions before booking regional travel.
Use this page to organise the correct passport, purpose, documents and timing. Current visa rules, eligibility and entry conditions can change, so review the destination’s current visa platform before payment or travel.

What this page does not promise
A private information page can help organise a travel file, but it cannot guarantee approval, a fixed processing time, a particular fee or entry. Do not use a visitor route for employment, residence or another activity that the issued permission does not cover.
- A single-entry visa should not be treated as multiple entry.
- A longer validity window does not necessarily mean unlimited stay.

Is single entry only for tourism?
It can depend on the category; choose the purpose shown for the actual trip.
Can I extend a single-entry visa?
Do not assume extension or re-entry rights; use the applicable immigration process before expiry.
