Uganda finally commences visa online payments




KAMPALA. In a bid to boost domestic tourism, payment for Uganda visas is now done online. The new innovation is also projected to attract more foreigners into the country.


According to Mr Jacob Siminyu, the immigration directorate spokesperson, the service that has been tested for two days is promising.


“Seventy seven people have so far used the service to pay for their visas in the last two days since we started using it. Most of the clients are from United States of America where we have only two centres for visa application and payment,” he said.



“Other payments are from United Kingdom, India, Germany New Zealand, Canada, Oman, Spain and Brazil, Netherlands, Pakistan, Australia, Austria among others,” he added.


Mr Siminyu told Daily Monitor in a Monday interview that the service will become mandatory to payments for visas online after one week.
