Uganda is expected to begin printing its own security documents, including passports, national IDs and ballot papers, by 2028, according to the Uganda Security Printing Company (USPC).

The development follows the near completion of a security printing facility in Entebbe, whose construction began in 2022.

Speaking at the NIRA Expo at Kololo Ceremonial Grounds, USPC Projects Implementation Manager Abdul Nsubuga said outsourcing the production of security documents abroad has resulted in significant financial costs to the country.

Currency production is expected to follow once the facility is operational.
