Step 2: Prepare Required Documents
Before you can submit your application, there are a few documents you need to gather. These include:
Introduction Letter: This letter must come from your former school and be addressed to the Executive Director of UNEB.
A Valid Identity Card: You will need to provide an ID card such as your National ID, Passport, or any other identification card that can verify your identity.
A Police Letter: If you are applying for the replacement due to loss or damage of your certificate, you must provide a police letter confirming the loss.
Once you have these documents, you can proceed with your application. Don’t forget to upload scanned copies of all required documents when filling out the online application.
Step 3: Make Payment for the Verification Letter
For your application to be processed, you need to make the appropriate payment for the verification letter. The fees are as follows:
Ordinary Verification Letter: UGX 50,000
Hard Card (substitute for a certificate): UGX 100,000
Special/Political Purposes: UGX 300,000
You can make your payment via Airtel or MTN Mobile Money, or by depositing directly into the bank accounts of Stanbic Bank Uganda or Centenary Rural Development Bank.
After payment, you will receive a sample code (e.g., W001012) for tracking purposes. Keep this code safe, as you will need it for future reference.
