How to Add other classes to your driving licence in Uganda

Adding another class aka extending your driving permit to another class can easily be done if you qualify. Depending on the class you are extending, certain requirements apply and must be met by the applicant. Kindly note that a class can only be added to a valid license.

Requirements and process to add a class to your licence

The mandatory documents you will need for this process:

1. Valid national ID for Ugandan applicants. We also accept a duplicate/copy of the ID, a photocopy of the ID, or a NIRA verification letter if you don’t have any of the previous documents
   *For non-Ugandans: valid passport, valid visa — and, if applicable; work permit, dependant pass, or student pass (original copies)
   *For refugees: refugee card issued by the office of the prime minister (original copy)
2. Original licence
3. Proof of payment (payment registration number); how to generate a payment registration slip
4. Certificate of competence (issued by the Police IOV)
5. Certificate of training completion (obtained from a licenced driving school after training)
6. Fully filled-out driving licence application form
7. Fully filled-out medical examination report: The medical examination report is a section of the learner driving licence and driver licence application form. An applicant for a full driver licence does not need to fill the section if they already had it filled/completed on the learner licence within the last six months. A medical examination report done for the learner licence in the last six months is still valid for a full driver licence application.
