It is another year for business owners around Kampala city to pay their KCCA trading license fees aka rates. If you are planning to do business not only in the KCCA Divisions which make up Kampala district but also in all other parts and districts of Uganda, clearing your Trading license fees by paying the designated rates is vital to avoid any inconveniences during the course of operation.
We have seen incidences of business closure during working hours as a result of KCCA’s demand for trading licenses in the past years. I personally wouldn’t want the same to happen to you this year which is why I have made it quick for you by sharing the KCCA trading license rates for 2024.
Well aware of where your business falls, I mean the nature and where you are operating from, you are able to know in advance the amount you are expected to pay come the collection days and which is now. Just like I do, I know you also don’t want to miss working due to lockouts and etc which is why knowing much and planning in advance will help you out. Amount aka fees is quoted in Uganda shillings (Shs).
