Immigration & Citizenship Services – Uganda

At Nassuuna & Company Advocates we provide comprehensive immigration and citizenship legal services in Uganda, advising individuals, families, investors, and corporate entities on lawful entry, residence, employment, and nationality matters.

Uganda’s immigration regime is highly regulated and document-intensive. Our role is to ensure that every application complies fully with the law, policy guidelines, and administrative practice of the Directorate of Citizenship and Immigration Control (DCIC), while protecting our clients’ legal and commercial interests.

Our Immigration Practice in Uganda

We represent local and foreign clients before the Directorate of Citizenship and Immigration Control, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and other relevant authorities. Our practice combines technical legal expertise with hands-on experience in immigration procedures, compliance requirements, and regulatory engagement.

We support clients at every stage—from initial eligibility assessment to approval, renewal, appeal, or regularisation of immigration status.
