UPDATE: There is a new mandatory re-registration of SIM cards by all telecoms. Any SIM cards not re-registered by 20th April 2017 will be deactivated  as per Uganda Communications Commission (UCC). We have written a step by step guide on how to re-register your SIM card before the deadline. The process written about below no longer applies

Africell Uganda has introduced an online registration portal to help their customers register their SIM cards before the 30th November deadline stipulated by telecoms regulator UCC.

You can choose how to register your SIM card. You can either Whatsapp your details (ID and passport photo) to 791-1888-88  or send your details to [email protected]. Lastly you can log on to their SIM registration Web App (http://africell.ug/register – No longer available) and follow the easy steps.
