Directorate of Interpol and International relations Uganda has launched an online portal to help citizens apply for a certificate of good conduct and police clearance.
Keep in mind, the application fees remain unchanged for the two certificates, i.e. UGX76,000 for the certificate of good conduct and UGX23,000 for the police clearance.
Let’s look at how you can apply and pay for a certificate of good conduct and police clearance online, shall we?

I want to use mobile money for payment, which number do i pay to?
I think there is an option for Mobile Money payments. You don’t send money to a number but rather input your PIN from a popup prompt from the system. Just follow the steps in the article to pay.

How do I fill in the height details?
I am finding trouble filing that!
how do i fill in the height details?
What’s the error you are getting? I believe the default SI unit for heights in Uganda is “cm”, just write for example 193cm if it is not accepting, then write only 193. If your question is asking how to get your height details, then visit a nearby clinic, you should be able to measure your height for free.. Thanks
