Getting to Kigali from Uruguay

About 9,541 km separate Montevideo from Kigali, as the crow flies. Montevideo is five hours behind Kigali.

From Uruguay, most travellers connect through Nairobi (Kenya Airways), Paris CDG (RwandAir) or Addis Ababa (Ethiopian Airlines); your concierge plans the connection.

Among Uruguay's international airports: Carrasco General Cesáreo L. Berisso International Airport (MVD) and Capitan Corbeta CA Curbelo International Airport (PDP).

From Salto, Maldonado, Punta del Este or anywhere else in Uruguay, one message to the concierge starts the plan.

Entry for citizens of Uruguay

Citizens of every country can get a visa on arrival at Kigali International Airport and at all land borders, or apply online before travelling. The visa fee does not exceed USD 50 for a single entry or USD 70 for multiple entries. This summary was checked on 9 October 2026; always confirm on the official immigration page before booking flights.

Money and payment

Rates are in US dollars rather than the Uruguayan peso (UYU); guests pay by USD transfer, in Rwandan francs, by MTN MoMo, by Airtel Money or in crypto.

The concierge confirms the total in writing and sends the payment details after your dates are set.
