What happens if a Hungarian overstays their e-visa in Uganda?

If a Hungarian citizen exceeds the permitted duration of their tourist e-visa in Uganda, they will violate immigration regulations. Overstaying is a serious offense and may result in various penalties and legal actions.

• Penalties and Legal Ramifications: The Ugandan immigration authorities enforce strict penalties for overstaying, including fines and potential deportation. 
• Detention and Deportation: In addition to financial penalties, individuals who overstay their e-visa may face detention by immigration authorities. Subsequently, deportation proceedings may be initiated, leading to the person being repatriated to their home country at their own expense.
• Future Entry Ban: Overstaying an e-visa may result in future entry restrictions to Uganda. 
• Legal Action: Overstayed visitors must address their situation promptly. Seeking legal advice and assistance from the relevant authorities or legal professionals can help navigate the process and minimize the potential consequences.

To avoid these complications, it is strongly advised that Hungarian nationals adhere strictly to the terms and duration specified in their Ugandan tourist e-visa. If an extension is required, it is recommended to apply for it well in advance through the appropriate channels to ensure compliance with immigration regulations.
