Do Laotian citizens need to acquire a visa to enter Uganda?
Laos is not included in Uganda's visa-exempt list; Laotian citizens must apply for a visa to enter Uganda. Fortunately, an efficient online system for e-visa applications has been implemented since July 2016, simplifying the process for Laotian travelers to obtain Uganda tourist visas online.
The Uganda e-visa allows entry without requiring in-person interviews at the embassy or consulate. It is vital to remember that the e-visa is specifically designed for tourists, transit through Uganda, or short-term business purposes. The online application procedure often takes less than 20 minutes, and e-visa results are usually received within three business days.
