Do Brazil passport holders need a visa to visit NP?

Brazilian ordinary passport holders can get a tourist Visa on Arrival (VOA) at Nepal's Tribhuvan International Airport and at land border crossings. There is no visa-free entry for ordinary passports (the visa waiver applies only to Brazilian diplomatic/official/service passports). Pay in USD on arrival or pre-register online before travel. As of 30 May 2026, a Brazilian citizen holding an ordinary passport does NOT enter Nepal visa-free. Nepal grants a 90-day visa exemption only to holders of Brazilian diplomatic, official or service passports, so several travel blogs incorrectly extend a "reciprocal waiver" to all Brazilians. Ordinary passport holders instead obtain a tourist Visa on Arrival (VOA), which the Department of Immigration issues at Tribhuvan International Airport (Kathmandu) and at designated land borders. Brazil is not among the dozen nationalities barred from VOA, so the on-arrival channel is available. Fees are fixed in USD: USD 30 for 15 days, USD 50 for 30 days, and USD 125 for 90 days, all multiple-entry. Travelers may complete an "Online Visa" pre-registration form within 15 days before departure to speed up processing, but the visa fee is still paid (and the visa stamped) on arrival. A passport valid for at least 6 months, a recent photo, and the fee in cash (USD or convertible currency) are required. Total stay as a tourist is capped at 150 days per calendar year. Nepal is not in the Schengen area; the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply.
