The Uganda National Examinations Board (UNEB) has issued a deadline of midnight, Sunday, June 15, 2025, for the normal registration of candidates for this year’s national examinations.
In a press statement released Friday, UNEB urged all heads of examination centres who have not yet completed the registration of their learners to do so without delay. The Board also cautioned that any learners not registered by the cut-off date will be subjected to a late registration period that includes additional surcharges.

“Government-aided schools are reminded that government will not cover any surcharges for candidates who miss this deadline,” the statement read in part.
So far, 1,372,015 candidates have been registered: 809,384 for the Primary Leaving Examination (PLE), 404,682 for the Uganda Certificate of Education (UCE), and 157,949 for the Uganda Advanced Certificate of Education (UACE).
The fees for normal registration remain at Shs 34,000 for PLE, Shs 164,000 for UCE, and Shs 186,000 for UACE.
UNEB also addressed technical challenges reported by some UCE examination centres using the Automated Management Information System (AMIS). Schools experiencing issues have been advised to download the latest patch from the UNEB portal, with strict instructions not to uninstall the previous version.
