What Nepal tourist visa is for.

Nepal tourist visa covers short visits to Nepal — tourism, visiting family and friends, business meetings, and, where the rules allow, transit. It is not a work permit or a long-stay visa.

If your trip is not covered by Nepal tourist visa — a longer stay, or a purpose it does not allow — you may instead need a Nepali visa. Your passport must be valid for your whole trip; Nepal's authorities set the exact conditions, shown on the official site.

Nepal tourist visa questions, answered.

What does Nepal tourist visa cost through Venelas?

You pay one Venelas fee to prepare, check and submit your application, shown in full before you pay, plus the government fee (from $30). Both are shown on their own lines, and no fee is added after you start.

Who needs Nepal tourist visa?

You need Nepal tourist visa to travel to Nepal unless your passport is exempt. If you are unsure, check the current rules on the official site before you apply.

What do I need to apply?

Your passport, passport photo, an email address for the result, and your trip dates.

What can I do on Nepal tourist visa?

Nepal tourist visa is for short visits: tourism, seeing family and friends, business meetings, and, where the rules allow, transit. It does not permit paid work or long-term study. If your trip is not covered, you may instead need a Nepali visa. The exact conditions are set by Nepal's authorities.

How long does Nepal tourist visa take?

Published guidance: on arrival. We submit as soon as your application is ready.

How long is Nepal tourist visa valid, and how long can I stay?

It is valid multiple entry. You can usually stay 15, 30 or 90 days.

Does my passport need to be valid for a certain time?

Your passport must be valid for your whole trip, and many destinations ask for at least six months’ validity beyond your arrival date. Check the current rule for Nepal on the official site; we flag it if your dates look short.

Do I need Nepal tourist visa to transit through Nepal?

Transit rules vary by nationality and route. If you will only pass through Nepal on the way somewhere else, check whether an authorisation is required on the official site; we prepare the one your trip needs.

Can I apply for my whole family at once?

Yes. One Venelas application can carry several travellers, and we prepare each person’s authorisation. In most cases every traveller needs their own, including children.

Do I apply through Venelas or the government?

Venelas prepares, checks and submits your application to Nepal's authorities. Venelas is a private company owned by Opaige Inc, not a government agency. The decision to grant or refuse the authorisation is made solely by Nepal's authorities.

Can I change my details after I apply?

Tell us before we submit and we correct it at no cost. Once Nepal's authorities have issued Nepal tourist visa, changes are made through them, not through Venelas.

How will I receive my Nepal tourist visa?

When the decision is made, we send it to the email address on your application, and it stays in your Venelas account so you can find it any time.

Is my information secure?

Your details are sent over an encrypted connection and kept private, never sold. We store them so your next application takes about a minute.

Why might an application be refused, and what happens then?

The most common cause is incomplete or inconsistent information, which is why we read every field against the official form before we submit. The decision rests with Nepal's authorities. If it is refused, your Venelas fee comes back to you; the government fee belongs to the destination.
