As outlined by someone else, this is correct for installation images.
Live images lack a UEFI boot capability.

However be aware that UEFI comes in two flavours on x86 platforms :
32-bit or 64-bits. Even though most if not all UEFI x86 platforms have a
64-bit CPU, some have a 32-bit UEFI firmware (as seen on some notebooks
with little RAM and disk space).

Also be aware that for the current stable distribution (Jessie),
i386-only installation images only have 32-bit UEFI boot capability, and
conversely amd64-only installation images only have 64-bit UEFI boot
capability. Only the "multi-arch" i386+amd64 CD or DVD installation
images have 32-bit and 64-bit UEFI boot capability.
