Shipping to Uganda from the USA involves choosing between fast, pricier air freight (DHL, FedEx, UPS) or slower, cheaper sea freight (LCL/FCL) for larger items, with costs varying greatly by weight/volume, typically ranging from ~$20 for small packages to hundreds for large shipments or containers, taking weeks to months depending on the method, with customs clearance adding significant time (weeks). Key steps include using a courier/forwarder, preparing customs forms, and accounting for transit and customs processing.
