A PRN is required in order to make all URA tax-related payments at the bank, mobile money, and POS services like Pebuu, Payway, etc. In order to obtain a URA PRN, one has to visit the Uganda Revenue Authority web portal and register a payment.

What exactly is a PRN?

A PRN which is short for Payment Registration Number is a unique auto-generated number used in processing payments. So, each payment form is pre-populated with a unique payment reference number, or PRN, which is used to match the allocations on the payment form to the actual payment made.
