Egypt to Uganda visa requirements
Egyptian ordinary passport holders need a visa for Uganda and must obtain an eVisa online before travel. Apply on the official portal (visas.immigration.go.ug), pay USD 50 for the single-entry tourist visa, and carry a yellow fever vaccination certificate. Uganda requires Egyptian ordinary passport holders to hold a visa for tourism, and the standard route is the electronic visa (eVisa) applied for in advance through the official Uganda Electronic Visa/Permit Application System at visas.immigration.go.ug. Visa on arrival has been phased out for most foreign nationals, so travelers should secure the eVisa before departure. The single-entry tourist eVisa costs USD 50, is valid for 90 days from issue, and typically permits a stay of up to 90 days (the immigration officer may grant less at entry). Required documents include a passport valid at least 6 months with a blank page, a recent passport-style photo, a return/onward ticket, proof of accommodation or itinerary, and a yellow fever vaccination certificate (mandatory for entry into Uganda). Processing usually takes about 2-3 business days. Travelers planning to combine Uganda with Kenya and Rwanda can instead apply for the East African Tourist Visa (USD 100), a 90-day multiple-entry visa valid across all three countries. Applicants should use only the official government portal and avoid third-party sites that add inflated processing fees.
