Uganda Visa Requirements For Sudanese Citizens

Yes. Because Sudan is not on the exemption list for Uganda visas, Sudanese passport holders require a visa to enter the country. Fortunately, Sudanese citizens who travel to Uganda for tourist activities or transit can now apply for an Uganda visa online, which is more convenient than the traditional visa. Currently, there are three types of Uganda e-visa for Sudanese citizens: tourist e-visa, transit e-visa, and East Africa e-visa. 

The online process enables Sudanese applicants to complete the application form in a matter of minutes from the comfort of their homes and receive an Uganda visa in a maximum of 03 business days. It is strongly advised that Sudanese applicants begin their application process in advance of at least 07 days before their departure date to avoid unpredictable complications. See Uganda e-visa requirements for Sudanese citizens.

Unfortunately, Sudanese citizens cannot get a visa on arrival in Uganda. In 2016, the Government of Uganda launched electronic visas (e-visa) to simplify the visa processing system for travelers requiring visas from eligible countries. As a result, Sudanese individuals planning to visit Uganda now can apply for an Uganda visa online prior to their journey, as visas are no longer issued upon arrival in the country. This new process ensures a more efficient and organized visa application procedure for prospective travelers to Uganda.

Moreover, with the e-visa system, applicants now do not require to visit the embassy for visa application. The process now takes place entirely online, and it generally takes less than 20 minutes to complete. Visit Uganda Immigration Services to begin.

• A copy of the passport's biographical information.

• A digital passport-sized photograph of the applicant.
