The 60-second version
Uganda exit needs employer PAYE certificate and URA compliance check. I export NSSF statements, close UGX/USD account, wire to NRE, and map RNOR for retained holdings.
URA withholding certificate before bank dormancy
Uganda taxes residents on worldwide income — I obtain employer PAYE reconciliation and confirm URA TIN has no open assessments.
Work permit cancel through employer; retain immigration exit documentation for India ITR overlap year.
NSSF member statement export even if lump-sum not yet paid — needed for Form 67 and benefit claims.
