Directorate of Citizenship and Immigration in Uganda has cautioned immigrants against the Visa scam. It has said that scammers are using fake websites and charging exorbitant fees for E-Visa. This is after several complaints by immigrants claiming that they have been charged very high Visa fees.

 

More than 200 immigrants have filed complaints with the Department of Immigration as per the available statistics. This is after they realised that they had paid 2 to 3 times more than the Visa cost

 

Maselino Bwesigye Citizenship and Immigration Control Acting Director addressed the media at Kampala. He said that applicants must refer only to the official E-Visa application portal of the Government of Uganda. This offers details of diverse Uganda Visas and costs, he added.

 

Increasing Visa fees is unlawful said Maselino Bwesigye, as quoted by the Journal du Cameroun.  The scammers caught in Visa scam will face prosecution after they are caught, he said.

 

Immigrants who intend to arrive at Uganda must do so only for legal purposes. This must also be as per the formalities, guidelines and immigration laws of Uganda.
