Uganda e-Visa for Israelis — After You Booked Flights
Last updated: · Prepared by the visaforisraelis.com team
If you paid for a gorilla trek, you still need an e-Visa from visas.immigration.go.ug before the flight: $50 government fee, single entry, stay up to 90 days, 3–5 working days. Uganda also requires a yellow-fever certificate — we will ask for a photo of the yellow booklet with the other files.
Official source: visas.immigration.go.ug — official portal
You booked a trek — file a week before departure
The forest permit will not get you past the border without an approved visa. File at least a week ahead so a portal delay does not cancel the trek.
Yellow fever — not optional
Without a valid booklet you can be refused even with an e-Visa. If the vaccine is missing, arrange it in Israel before you rely on the flight date.
Kenya–Uganda itinerary
A Uganda e-Visa does not replace a Kenya eTA. The combined East Africa visa exists — advice from your tickets, not an automatic filing here.
FAQ
Is the vaccine required at application too?
Sometimes on the portal, and always at entry. We ask for the photo up front.
Are you the official site?
No. visas.immigration.go.ug is the portal.
Entry rules change frequently and the final decision always rests with border authorities. Always verify with an official source close to your travel date.
