| Nationals of SAARC countries and
China do not need visa when visiting Nepal. As per
this rule, Indian nationals do not require visa.
However, effective from October 2000, Indians traveling to Nepal
by air have to show upon arrival at entry point a valid photo
identity like a passport, voter's identity or an identify card
issued by the Indian government. Temporary identity card with
photographs issued by Nepal-based Indian diplomatic missions
is considered in case of exception. Children under 10 years
need not show any identification. Other non-Nepali visitors
do not need visa to be in Nepal for three days. Visa must
be obtained for staying over the initial period of three days.
Free visa is to be given to tourists for re-entry to Nepal
provided they stay at least for 15 days in the country in
that visa year.
First single entry to Nepal for 60 days from the date of
entry is US $ 30 or equivalent convertible foreign or Nepali
currency. The second entry in the same visa year for 30 days
from the date of entry is US $ 30.
Multiple entry for one visa year is US $ 50 plus US $ 30
for single entry or equivalent convertible foreign or Nepali
currency. |
