Motoring | THE INDEPENDENT | Validation of motor vehicles is a process where a taxpayer captures details of the old log book into the URA online motor vehicle register to acquire a new E-log book.
From 2020, you will need to validate your logbook to be able to pay third party insurance for the vehicle or motor bike you have. You cannot also transfer the car to another party without validation, which is all done online for free. Transfer fees however remain sh84,000 only.
The Uganda Insurance Regulatory Authority has also outlined how to pay for third party using a phone.
