Free ATM Cash Withdrawals in Uganda

Connect with me on Twitter, Facebook and now Threads.


Finding a ATM in Uganda with free cash withdrawals is not easy.

I have just 1 confirmed FREE ATM withdrawal in Uganda, and that is the DTB bank.

1. Diamond Trust Bank (DTB)

The DTB (Diamond Trust Bank) did not charge me a withdrawal fee using my UK-issued Mastercard.

Notes on other ATMs in Uganda:

The UBA bank: Accepts both Visa and Mastercard. 3,400 UGX withdrawal fee. This fee is displayed on the ATM screen allowing you to accept or decline.

The I&M bank: The I&M ATM charges 5,750 UGX and it does NOT display the withdrawal fee on the screen when using the ATM

The Centenary Bank: In theory this bank accepts both Visa and Mastercard but failed to give me money. Reasons unknown.

The EcoBank: I used this ATM in Kenya and in Zambia with no withdrawal fee

But here in Uganda, I was charged a massive 12,100UGX.

As with the I&M bank, there was no notification displayed on the ATM screen. MotherFuckers!

Tropical Bank: Accepts Visa only. No details on fees.

​Baroda Bank: Accepts Visa only. No details on fees.
