Student Visa and Work Permit Are Needed for International Students to Study in Uganda
The student visa process for students to legally work and be paid in Uganda is in fact can take some time to process. We suggest that students send in the necessary information as quickly as possible and months ahead of their arrival date to Uganda. Students would just need to send in their information and the acceptance letter of the university they were accepted to. To so that they intend to study and work in the country. This is the best way for students to be admitted back into the country under legal protocol.
