How can I get a Uganda Visa online?

The first thing you need to do is to make sure that you meet all the requirements. However, that should not be hard because iVisa will handle all the dirty work with minimal effort on your behalf. You need to have some documents so that you can start the application process. Here is what you must have:

• A valid passport – the passport needs to be valid for at least 6 months from the date of arrival in Uganda
• A copy of your passport’s information page
• A passport-sized photograph
• A certificate of vaccination for yellow fever – if you fail to comply, you will be subjected to compulsory immunization in Uganda, and some quarantine measures may be taken.

If you apply for a Uganda Transit visa, you also need a letter that states your reason for transit and destination. The East Africa Visa requires a return flight ticket and an itinerary, along with the items above. Once you have all that, you can move on to the application form.

The application form could not be simpler. You need to complete three easy steps. The first one asks for your personal information and some details about your trip. You must also choose a processing time and a visa type. Both choices will determine the cost of your visa. There are three visa types: Tourist, Transit, and East Africa Visa, which allows you to travel to Uganda, Kenya, and Rwanda if first you use it in the country that issued it.

As for processing time, iVisa gives you three options, something that you will not find at an embassy. They are as follows:

• Standard – your visa is ready within 4 business days, and the cost is $86.30.
• Rush – your application is processed within 2 business days, and the cost is $116.30.
• Super Rush – your visa will arrive within just 1 business day, but you will be charged $151.30

The prices above are expressed for the tourist and transit visa. The East Africa Visa costs a bit more. You will be charged $148, $178, and $213 respectively.

The second phase of the application form will require you to make a quick revision and make the payment. Make sure that all the information you provide is 100% accurate because you cannot make a correction after your application reaches processing. As for payment, you can do it using a credit/debit card, or a Paypal account.

The last step consists of additional documents upload. iVisa will notify you about everything you need depending on your personal circumstances. After you are done, you are free to submit your application and wait for your visa to arrive. It is easy to see why iVisa is gaining so many clients all over the world. The online application process is simple and fast, there is no bureaucratic hassle on your end, and you get your Uganda visa online without even getting out of the house. It cannot get any better than that.
