Uganda eVisa Name Change

You need an official marriage certificate, updated passport with new name, certified translation (if not in English), and a name change affidavit. All documents must be official and verifiable.

Fees range from free (before submission) to $150 (emergency changes during processing). Legal name changes cost $50-$75, while marriage/divorce changes cost $75 within 24 hours.

No, you cannot travel if your visa name doesn't exactly match your passport name. This will result in denied boarding and entry refusal. The names must match exactly.

Processing time varies from immediate (pre-submission) to 14 business days (emergency changes). Most name changes take 3-7 business days for document verification and processing.

Foreign language documents must be accompanied by certified English translations from authorized translation services. Both original and translated documents are required for processing.

No, name changes are not possible after visa approval. You would need to apply for a new visa with the correct name and provide all required documentation for the new application.

You can only use the name that appears on your current valid passport. If your passport shows your maiden name, use that for the visa. If it shows your married name, use the married name.

If your name change request is denied due to insufficient documentation or timing issues, your application will continue with the original name. You may need to submit a new application with correct documentation.
