An accurate geometric distortion solution for the Hubble Space Telescope UVIS channel of Wide Field Camera 3 is the first step toward its use for high-precision astrometry. In this work we present an average correction that enables a relative astrometric accuracy of similar to 1 mas (in each axis for well-exposed stars) in three broadband ultraviolet filters (F225W, F275W, and F336W). More data and a better understanding of the instrument are required to constrain the solution to a higher level of accuracy.
