    How Can I Get a Nepal Visa? 

    Tribhuvan International Airport is the only international airport in Nepal. The Immigration Office, TIA (Tribhuvan International Airport), under the Department of Immigration, has been facilitating tourists flying to Nepal by providing visas on Arrival. Likewise, other Entry and Exit points established at the border regions also provide ' On Arrival Visa' to foreign nationals hoping to enter Nepal via land.

    The 'On Arrival' visa procedure is very quick and simple. You can expect some queues during peak Tourist season. If you wish to skip those queues, you can also consider getting a Visa from Nepalese Diplomatic Missions stationed abroad before your arrival. The choice is yours. If you have obtained a visa from Nepalese Diplomatic Missions, then you must enter Nepal within six months from the visa-issued date. Your total stay is counted starting from the day you enter Nepal.

    ON Arrival Visas are 'Tourist Visas'. They bear multiple re-entry facilities. Tourist Visa 'On Arrival' is the only entry visa to Nepal. If you are visiting Nepal for purposes other than Tourism (sightseeing, tour, travel, mountaineering, trekking, visiting friends and families), you should still get a ' Tourist Visa' to get into the country. However, you must change the category of visa as per your purpose and length of stay in Nepal from the Department of Immigration by producing the required documents.

    Nationals of designated countries are requested to acquire visas before they arrive from their nearby Diplomatic missions (Embassies/consulates) of the Nepal Government. Check the link to make sure of your eligibility for visa 'On Arrival. If you wish to apply for a Nepal visa, please kindly open this link: Department of immigration.

    • Fill in an arrival card.

    • If you fill it from the website, you will get a submission Receipt with a barcode. Please print it out and bring it along to acquire a visa.
    • It works for fifteen days and becomes invalid then after. If so, you will have to fill it up again.
