🇳🇱Netherlands🇳🇵NepalNL-NP Netherlands to Nepal visa requirements
Yes - Dutch passport holders get a visa on arrival in Nepal. There is no need to apply in advance; you obtain a tourist visa at the airport or land border for USD 30 (15 days), USD 50 (30 days), or USD 125 (90 days), all multiple-entry. Netherlands (ordinary passport) holders traveling to Nepal for tourism receive a Tourist Visa on Arrival (VOA), which is Nepal's standard entry channel for nearly all foreign nationals. The Netherlands is not on Nepal's list of excluded nationalities, so Dutch citizens are fully eligible. The visa is issued at Tribhuvan International Airport (Kathmandu), at Pokhara and Gautam Buddha (Lumbini) international airports, and at designated land border crossings. Fees are tied to duration: USD 30 for 15 days, USD 50 for 30 days, and USD 125 for 90 days, and every tourist visa carries multiple-entry rights within its validity. To speed up arrival, travelers can pre-complete the online application form at immigration.gov.np and print the barcode receipt. Requirements are a passport valid at least 6 months with a blank page, a passport-size photo, and the fee in USD or convertible currency (cards generally accepted). Tourists may stay a maximum of 150 days in any single calendar year, and visas can be extended at Department of Immigration offices. Nepal is not in the Schengen area, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply to this route.
