Traveling to Nepal from Bangladesh is relatively straightforward, with Nepal offering an on-arrival visa for Bangladeshi citizens. Here’s a comprehensive guide to help you understand the requirements and process:

1. Passport Requirements

- Validity: Your passport must be valid for at least six months from the date of entry into Nepal.

- Blank Pages: Ensure your passport has at least two blank pages for visa stamps.

2. Visa Application Form

- Upon arrival at Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu, you will need to fill out a visa application form. This can be done electronically at the visa application kiosks available at the airport or by filling out a paper form provided by immigration authorities.

3. Passport-Sized Photographs

- Photos Required: You must provide one passport-sized photograph (35mm x 45mm) for the visa application form.

- Specifications: The photo should be recent, with a clear view of your face against a plain background. It should match the specifications commonly required for visa applications.

4. Visa Fees

- Tourist Visa Fee: The on-arrival visa fee depends on the duration of your stay:

  - 15 days: USD 30

  - 30 days: USD 50

  - 90 days: USD 125

- Payment Method: The visa fee must be paid in cash. While USD is preferred, other major currencies such as Euro and GBP are also accepted. It's advisable to carry the exact amount to avoid any inconvenience.

5. Visa Duration and Extensions

- Initial Visa: The on-arrival visa allows you to stay in Nepal for up to 90 days.

- Extensions: If you wish to extend your stay beyond the initial visa period, you can do so at the Department of Immigration in Kathmandu or Pokhara. The extension fee is USD 3 per day, with a minimum charge of USD 30.

6. Supporting Documents

- Proof of Accommodation: You may be asked to provide proof of your accommodation in Nepal, such as a hotel reservation or an invitation letter from a host.

- Return or Onward Ticket: Immigration officials may request to see a return or onward ticket as proof of your intention to leave Nepal after your stay.

- Travel Itinerary: While not always required, it’s a good idea to have a copy of your travel itinerary, detailing the places you plan to visit in Nepal.

7. Health Requirements

- Vaccinations: Currently, there are no mandatory vaccinations for entering Nepal. However, it’s advisable to check with your healthcare provider for recommended vaccinations based on your travel plans.

- COVID-19 Regulations: Check the latest COVID-19 travel regulations, as requirements for testing, vaccination, or quarantine may change based on the current situation.

8. Immigration Clearance

- Arrival Process: After disembarking, proceed to the visa application kiosks or the immigration counters to submit your completed visa form, photograph, and passport.

- Visa Issuance: Once your documents are reviewed and the fee is paid, the visa will be issued on the spot, allowing you entry into Nepal.

9. Important Notes 

- Overstaying: Overstaying your visa without an extension can result in fines and legal complications. It’s important to keep track of your visa expiration date.

- Multiple Entries: If you plan to exit and re-enter Nepal during your stay, inform the immigration officer to issue a visa that allows multiple entries, though this may incur additional fees.
