Veridos announced the start of a major investment project in the Republic of Uganda. The company entered into 15-year-partnership with the government of Uganda to provide the country’s citizens with all relevant security documents.
 
A new joint venture, Uganda Security Printing Company (USPC), has been created by Veridos and the state-owned Uganda Printing and Publishing Corporation (UPPC) specifically for this wide-ranging project.
 
The partnership covers the establishment of a modern security printing factory capable of producing all security documents, including ePassports and polycarbonate ID cards, and supplying all related services.
 
“This project ensures that Uganda meets the East African Community targets for issuing passports. Ugandan citizens will benefit from smooth and secure travel with ICAO-compliant ePassports and enhanced identification processes thanks to the new sophisticated ID cards,” said Hans Wolfgang Kunz, CEO of Veridos, said.
