These are the new Uganda driving permit prices for 2025 for a new driver’s license, renewal of expired/lapsed permit, extension to another class, foreign driver’s license exchange, and duplicate (lost license). The new driving license charges came into effect when the Uganda Driver Licensing System (UDLS) took over from the defunct Face Technologies.
The fees shown below are paid strictly at the bank and vary depending on the type of driving license one is processing. Payments are made to a URA bank account in any of the URA-supported banks of choice depending on the type of license which is being processed.
To make any payment to the bank, you, first of all, need to generate a payment registration number which you take to the bank of choice and make the payment, it begins by visiting the URA web portal and registering a Payment PRN.
