To facilitate free movement of goods and people within the borders of the two neighbouring countries, DRC removed visa fees for Ugandan intending to visit the country. Previously, the fee ranged from US$50 to US$100 depending on the length of stay when traveling to DRC. The removal of the fees will promote trade and strengthen bilateral relations between the two countries. However, the guarantee of free movement is subject to restrictions imposed by the countries for reasons of public policy, public security or public health.
