Can I apply for a Uganda e-Visa for someone else (family member/child)?

Yes, the application process for Uganda e-Visa inclusion exists to grant visas for additional persons such as family members and children.

Applying for a visa for children is common, but it requires additional documents, such as a birth certificate and a parental consent letter, especially if only one parent is accompanying the child. Ensure you meet all the requirements before submitting the application.

Application process for someone else

The application process for another person requires gathering their required documents including:

• A clear passport scan (valid for at least six months)
• A recent passport-sized photograph
• Travel itinerary
• Yellow fever vaccination certificate (if applicable)

When applying for minor travelers you need to submit their birth certificate alongside a parental consent letter when only one parent accompanies them.

Use the correct personal details

When filling out the application carefully type every detail precisely including both names and passport numbers alongside birth dates and all remaining personal information belonging to your application subject. Mistakes during the application process become both expensive and require extensive time to fix them.

Note: When applying for someone else, make sure the visa type (tourist, transit, or multiple entry) matches their intended travel purpose and duration of stay.

Payment and confirmation

Different payment methods are available to you when making a visa application even if the visa belongs to another person. The visa approval process sends an email to the application contact information therefore select an email account that you check regularly.

The procedure to obtain an e-Visa for Uganda for a family member or child proves both feasible and regular. The success of your application depends on both document accuracy and correct file upload to the system.
