Embassy of Qatar in Uganda

Does Uganda have a Qatar embassy?

Uganda is in the process of establishing official diplomatic representation from Qatar. As of the latest updates, Qatar has announced plans to open a resident Embassy of Qatar in Kampala, marking the first formal mission in the country. Previously, Qatar handled Ugandan affairs through its embassy in Nairobi, Kenya. The upcoming embassy will enhance bilateral cooperation, provide consular services, and support travel and investment between the two nations. Once fully operational, it will serve as Qatar’s primary diplomatic hub in Uganda.

How can I apply for a Qatar Visa from Uganda without visiting the embassy?

Instead of visiting the Qatar embassy and waiting for a long time, Ugandan citizens can apply for a Qatar visa, which will be processed within 3 working days. The eVisa is good for tourism and a 30-day residency permit. Applying is easy, and applicants often receive their eVisa within hours with Visa Rush services.

Here’s how to apply for a Qatar visa for Ugandan citizens:

• Visit the official website of Qatar Immigration Services: If you do not have an account, register at the Visa portal.
• Complete the application form: fill in your personal information, travel information, and passport information.
• Submit required documents: Submit scanned copies of required documents such as passports, recent photographs, and other specified materials.
• Visa payment: Use the available online payment options to pay the required fee.
• Submit your application: Before submitting your application, please review the information and documents.
• Receive your eVisa: Once the process is complete, your eVisa will be sent to you. Print a copy to take with you when you travel to Qatar.

If your travel doesn’t align with the visa requirements, such as for non-tourism purposes or stays exceeding 30 days, you will need to apply for a traditional visa at the Qatar embassy.
