Nepal Visa Guide

One of Nepal's famous entry visa types is a tourist visa, which can be obtained upon arrival at Kathmandu airport. There are several entry points. You should still get a "Tourist Visa" to enter Nepal if you travel for reasons other than tourism (such as sightseeing, tours, travel, mountaineering, trekking, or visiting friends and family). 

What do you need to obtain a Nepal visa?

  • A valid passport (The passport should have a validity of at least six months and must have at least a blank page for the visa stamp)
  • Complete the application form online (you can fill it out by visiting our official website, Department of Immigration) before arriving at the entry point. It works for fifteen days and becomes invalid after.
  • You must pay Visa fees in cash.

On-Arrival Visa Fee at Entry Points

  • 15 Days – 30 USD
  • 30 Days – 50 USD
  • 90 Days – 125 USD

Visa Extension Fee

  • Tourist visa extensions are for a minimum of 15 days, with USD 45 and USD 3 per day for additional days.
  • If the delay is less than 150 days, there is an additional USD 5 per day late fine.
  • Visa charges are not applicable for children under ten years of age. However, they must obtain a valid visa. Once issued, the visa cannot be amended, and the visa fees are non-refundable. Always carry your passport and trekking permit while trekking.
