Egypt to Nepal visa requirements

Egyptian passport holders can get a visa on arrival in Nepal for tourism. Egypt is not on Nepal's restricted-nationality list, so a tourist visa is issued at the airport or land borders for USD 30 (15 days), USD 50 (30 days), or USD 125 (90 days). Egyptian ordinary passport holders do not need a visa before traveling to Nepal for tourism. Nepal grants a Visa on Arrival (VoA) to citizens of almost all countries, and Egypt is NOT on the list of restricted nationalities (which currently includes Afghanistan, Cameroon, Eswatini, Ethiopia, Ghana, Iran, Iraq, Liberia, Nigeria, Palestine, Somalia, Syria, and Zimbabwe) that must apply at a Nepali diplomatic mission in advance. The tourist visa is multiple-entry and is available at Tribhuvan International Airport (Kathmandu), Pokhara and Gautam Buddha international airports, and authorized land border checkpoints with India and China. Fees are charged in USD or convertible currency: USD 30 for 15 days, USD 50 for 30 days, and USD 125 for 90 days. A tourist may stay a maximum cumulative total of 150 days within one calendar year. The passport must be valid for at least 6 months. An optional online pre-application (eVisa-style form) at the Department of Immigration website can be completed within 15 days before travel to speed up airport processing, but it is not mandatory. As of 2026-05-30 there were no announced changes removing or restricting Egypt's VoA eligibility. Nepal is not part of the Schengen area, so the 90/180 Schengen rule and ETIAS do not apply.
