Hi

Everything is obviously more expensive if you are coming from Asia, Europe or North America. You get almost everything in Uganda, so unless you have exotic tastes in food or decoration, OR you have some illness which needs continuous medication, you do not need to bring anything. Essential I would still list out as general purpose Medicines, some spices (the ones available are not so good as you might find out later) and clothes/shoes  in sufficient quantities.

Cheers

Morning, I would like to know from which country you are coming from.
if you are coming to Entebbe or Kampala you will be able to get almost all groceries and fresh produce in available from various supermarkets in Uganda. the beer is great and cheap, Nile Special is the top selling brand in Uganda. feel free to contact me when you are in Uganda, I will be happy to show you around.
thanks Duncan

Hi all,

You can buy pretty much everything you want now in Kampala but quality may not be what you are used to, and the prices may be higher if they are imported products.

There is a big problem with 'fake' / replica products.

If you have a printer, for example, it is actually better to buy in Kampala because then you know you will find the cartridges et cetera you need.

As someone else suggests, bring medication if you have specific / uncommon needs. Health food supplements are quite difficult to come by.

These days it is easier to import things e.g. through international carriers, or visiting friends. I stopped using the post office about five years ago, but the service may have improved by now.
