KENYA
Kenya Airways has made visa application forms available on their website for visitors to Kenya. By visiting www.kenya-airways.com, travellers can download, complete, print out and sign the visa application forms, which they can then present for processing at any of Kenya’s points of entry. Kenya offers Transit (Maximum of 7 days, US$20), Single Entry (US$50) and Multiple (One year – US$110) visas. Single entry visas permit travel to Uganda & Tanzania & re-entry to Kenya. Travel elsewhere, i.e. Rwanda, will forfeit this.
RWANDA
Ugandans, Americans and Germans do not require visas. British and South Africans do require visas but they are acquired free of charge. Others must get a visa before proceeding to Rwanda. Transit visas (7 days), Entry (3 months) and Multiple (3 months) are offered. Visas can be obtained on the same day depending on how the application satisfies the embassy. The visa section in Kampala is open Monday to Friday 9am-12 noon.
TANZANIA
Residents of Commonwealth countries (except India, Nigeria, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the UK) do not require visas to Tanzania. Neither do Namibians, Irish, Romanians and Rwandese. If coming from a country where there’s no Tanzanian Mission, visas can be obtained at points of entry. The same visa allows you to enter Zanzibar. Visa fees vary. For example: Canada US$50, Belgium US$40, Mexico US$35, Austria US$30, South Africa US$51, UK US$50. Transit visas last a maximum of 2 weeks.
SUDAN
Visas are charged at US$30 for single entry and US$100 for multiple entries. A visa is required prior to entry into Sudan and can take up to a week to process. Currently the embassy in Kampala is only open for visas on Tuesday Friday. Under certain circumstances a visa may be issued at the port of entry.
UGANDA
Visas are issued at Ugandan Missions abroad and also at entry/exit points. Underlying the Uganda visa policy is the principle of reciprocity, that is, all countries that require visas for Ugandans are also visa prone in Uganda.
Visa fees: Student – US$20; Single Entry – US$50;
Multiple Entry 6 months – US$100;
Multiple Entry 1 year – US$160;
Inland Transit – US$15.
