Arua City headquarter is 520 Km north of Kampala, Uganda’s capital city. 
Located at the confluence of a trade route between Uganda, South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo, Arua City is a hub of trade and commerce with vast investment and tourism opportunities.
Arua City traces its origins right to the beginnings of West Nile as a region. The region had been part of King Leopold II’s Congo Free State. It had been leased to him by the British in 1894 and passed back to Anglo-Egyptian Sudan after his death in December 1909. Chauncy Stigand, a British Colonial Official of the Equatoria Province advised that West Nile, the southern part of the enclave, be handed over to the administration of the Uganda Protectorate. And thus, the protectorate government set up their administrative center in Arua. 
In 1939 R. Thomson declared Arua Township as Town Board and later in 1974 the leadership of President Idi Amin Dada declared Arua as a Municipality. 
In April 2020, His Excellency Yoweri Kaguta Museveni the President of the Republic of Uganda elevated Arua Municipality to a City Status where the former Ayivu County (comprising of 7 Sub Counties of Manibe, Pajulu, Dadamu, Oluko, Aroi, Adumi, Ayivuni) in Arua District was annexed to form Ayivu Division in Arua City.
