Visa

Question:I am Brikty. An Eritrean living in Uganda. I asked a question where to renew my visa last time on this site. I got a fast and clear answer, Thank you. Now, I want ask farther question for more information I need. The question is as follows. To renew my visa for medical treatment what are the criteria that should I full fill? What evidences should I have in my hand?
Thanks in advance.

Answer:
Hello Brikty, thanks for this question.
I would suggest that along with the regular Uganda Visa requirements.

You need to have with you a correspondence with the hospital where you're going and the referral note from the hospital were you're coming from.

Additionally, you should have some evidence that you're well able to cater for all your medical bills. If you're on a medical insurance scheme, then you need to go for the interview with your insurance card.

This should be information enough to prove to the Ugandan consular that you're genuinely going to stay in Uganda on medical grounds and that you have the financial capacity to meet all your medical bills.

You would understandably not be awarded a Uganda Visa if the consular thinks you want to pest on the already constrained free public medical services.
