Nepal Tourist Visa Information

For travelers who are not Indian passport holders, Nepal offers the convenience of a visa on arrival at Kathmandu International Airport. Alternatively, non-Indian passport holders can apply for a Nepal entry visa online before arriving, which helps streamline the immigration process and reduces waiting time at the airport.

Ensuring that travelers carry the appropriate documents will help facilitate a smooth and hassle-free journey to Nepal.

Important Passport Information for Mt. Kailash Yatris

  • Your passport must be valid for at least six months from the start date of your Yatra.
