Yes, you need a visa to enter Uganda. The visa can be applied for online through the official website of the Ugandan Immigration Service. However, it is also possible to obtain a visa on arrival at the airport. Please note that the online application process is easier and often faster, so it is advisable to do this in advance to avoid long waiting times.

The Entebbe International Airport (EBB) is the best airport for international flights to Uganda. It is located about 40 km from Kampala, the capital. The airport offers a variety of connections to European and Asian destinations. Make sure to book your airline in advance, as some connections may be seasonal. Also, check the local transportation options from the airport to the city.

The local currency in Uganda is the Ugandan Shilling (UGX). While some larger businesses accept credit cards, it is advisable to have cash on hand, as many smaller vendors and local markets do not accept cards. ATMs are widespread in Kampala, but be careful with fees and use trusted banks. It is also wise to carry some cash for remote areas.

Before your trip to Uganda, certain vaccinations, such as for yellow fever, are strongly recommended. Travel insurance is also advisable to cover unforeseen medical or other issues. Check if malaria prophylaxis is necessary, especially if you plan to go to rural areas. Educate yourself early on the required vaccinations to avoid health problems.

To drive in Uganda, you need either an international driving permit or a national driving license translated into English. It is important to know the applicable traffic regulations, as they may differ from those in your home country. Also, plan to only ride authorized motorcycles and adhere to safety regulations to avoid fines or accidents.

To make calls and use data in Uganda, you can purchase a SIM card at Entebbe International Airport or at stores in Kampala. Providers such as MTN and Airtel offer prepaid plans that are affordable and provide good network coverage. Make sure to have your passport for registering the SIM card. This will allow you to be reachable everywhere and save money on calling while abroad.
