Nepal's visa system is straightforward. Most nationalities can obtain a visa on arrival at Kathmandu airport. Fees: $30 (15 days), $50 (30 days), $125 (90 days). Bring passport photos and cash (USD/EUR/GBP). You also need a TIMS card ($20) for trekking and a Sagarmatha National Park fee (~$30) for Khumbu peaks. See our Lukla flight guide and insurance guide for related logistics.
