FAQs

No, once arriving in the UAE, Ugandans are unable to get a visa. Before departing, Ugandan nationals must apply in advance for a UAE visa. This is how Ugandan passport holders go about it:

1. Pre-arranged Visa:

Before departing, nationals of Uganda must apply for a UAE visa via the UAE embassy, an authorized travel agent like UAE Visa Services, or an airline (such as Emirates or Etihad).

Tourist visas, usually valid for 30 or 90 days, and transit visas, intended for brief visits, are the two most common types of visas.

2. Documents Needed:

Currently valid passport (validity of at least six months)
Pictures of the size of a passport
Itineraries for flights
Evidence of accommodations
Evidence of finances (may need to demonstrate stability in finances)

3. Application Selections:

Application for a visa online via approved sites, such as the eVisa portal run by the UAE government or travel companies that handle visas for admission into the UAE.

Sponsorship: If you are residing in the UAE with friends, relatives, or a business, they can sponsor your visa.
