The LE-Card, which was first introduced in 2015, was developed jointly by BLB and FLY6 Technologies to help safeguard land documents for all individuals under Kabaka’s land tenure system.

The card uses palm-vein technology, which both parties say is globally proven to effectively combat land fraud and impersonation.

Speaking at the event,  Kaboggoza welcomed the partnership renewal and expressed the importance of the LE-Card in transforming land management in Buganda.

"The LE-Card is not just a card — it is security, it is protection, and it is trust. Our partnership with FLY6 continues to guarantee this," he said.

FLY6 CEO Prakash Ivaturi expressed satisfaction at the renewed collaboration, reaffirming the company’s commitment to technological excellence.

"Our continued collaboration with Buganda Land Board is a testament to the success of this innovation. The palm-vein technology behind the LE-Card remains among the most secure in verifying ownership and ensuring transaction integrity,” Ivaturi said.

According to officials, to register for the LE-Card, applicants must present authentic land ownership documents issued by the Buganda Land Board (BLB), along with the corresponding file number. Additionally, a valid form of identification is required—this can be a National ID, Passport, or Driving Permit.

Individuals must also provide proof of payment amounting to shs100,000, made via mobile money. For companies, the issuance fee is shs200,000, and a single card can cover multiple properties under the company's name.

The LE-Card offers several key advantages. It grants landowners real-time access to their land ownership data whenever needed and eliminates the need to carry bulky documents during transactions. It enables transactions to be carried out at any time, offering greater convenience. Most importantly, the LE-Card enhances security by offering stronger protection against fraud, forgery, and impersonation.
