In Uganda, many people own cars but are unaware that their vehicles can serve as collateral for quick access to cash. Sambax Finance provides a reliable and flexible solution through Log Book Loans, allowing car owners to unlock the value of their vehicles without selling them. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to get a loan from Sambax Finance using your car log book.

What is a Log Book Loan?

A log book loan is a type of secured loan where you use your car’s log book (vehicle registration card) as collateral. At Sambax Finance, you retain the right to use your vehicle throughout the loan period, as long as you meet your repayment obligations.

Step-by-Step Process to Get a Log Book Loan

1. Check Eligibility

The car is registered in your name (or you have the owner's consent).
The car is in good mechanical condition.
You have a valid national ID or passport.
You have a steady income or business to support loan repayments.

2. Visit Sambax Finance

You can walk into any Sambax Finance branch or apply online at www.sambaxfinance.com. A loan officer will guide you through the process.

3. Submit Required Documents

Original log book (VRC)
National ID or passport
Recent passport-sized photo
Proof of income or bank statement
Insurance certificate (if available)
Two referees

4. Vehicle Inspection and Valuation

Sambax Finance will inspect your car and determine its market value. The loan amount offered is usually a percentage of the car’s value — often between 50% to 70%.

5. Loan Offer and Agreement

If you qualify, you’ll receive a loan offer. Once you accept the terms, a loan agreement will be signed. Key details include:

Loan amount
Repayment period (usually 1 to 24 months)
Interest rate
Repayment schedule

6. Funds Disbursement

Once everything is signed and a caveat is placed on the vehicle for the loan period, funds are disbursed to your mobile money account or bank account—often on the same day.

7. Repay and Reclaim Full Ownership

Make timely repayments as per the schedule. Once the loan is fully paid, Sambax Finance will release the log book and remove the lien, restoring your full ownership rights.
