\nThe land is communally owned by a particular group of people in a particular area. Its utilization is usually controlled by elders, clan heads or a group in its own well-defined administrative structures. This land tenure is usually in the North, Eastern, North east, North West and some parts of Western Uganda<\/p>\n
\nIt\u2019s a system of owning land in perpetuity and was set up by an agreement between the Kingdoms and the British Government. Grants of land in freehold were made by the Crown and later by the Uganda Land Commission. The grantee of land in freehold was and is entitled to a certificate of title.<\/p>\n
\nLand held under mailo tenure system is mainly in Buganda (Central region) and some parts of Western Uganda. The system confers freehold granted by the colonial government in exchange for political co-operation under the 1900 Buganda Agreement and guided by the provisions of the 1998 Land Act.<\/p>\n
\nThis is a system of owning land for a particular period of time. In Uganda one can get a lease from an individual, local authority or government for a period usually 49 or 99 years with agreed terms and conditions.<\/p>\n
\nUnder this type of land tenure, the government owns land and has the right to lease it to any company or individual on specific terms and covenants.<\/p>\n
\nForeign investors are able to own land in Uganda and can receive long-term leases for a maximum of up to 99 years.<\/p>\n
