Nepal Visa Information:

Nepal visa on arrival

At the airport there are several visa choices:

- 15 days for $30

- 30 days for $50

- 90 days for $125

Payment by cash ONLY in any major currency (change is returned in rupees), and you need one passport photo too.

 Tourists are not permitted to stay more than 150 days in Nepal during one calendar year (1 Jan to 31 Dec).

You can prefill form from Department of Immigration Nepal up to 15 days before arrival, and then PRINT it. Then this form can be accessed by Immigration at the airport. It is not compulsory to fill out this way, however some of the detail is unnecessary and hard to find. You can contact us for any information you will need if you opt for filling up the visa form in advance. You can still turn up at the airport and fill out the standard printed forms.
