What is the supporting document?

The only requirement for your visa/residence permit to be used as a supporting document is that it should be still valid (by date) by the time you enter Uganda. Previously used or unused single-entry visas are accepted as long as their validity date covers your entry date to Uganda. Please note that e-Visas of other countries are not accepted as a supporting document.
