Stuck in Nepal with an expired visa? Here’s some good news. The Department of Immigration has announced free visa regularization for tourists whose visas expired after September 8, 2025, but couldn’t be renewed due to protests and curfews.
You can now sort your visa for free at Tribhuvan International Airport, where exit permits will also be issued. Even if you lost your passport, emergency travel documents will work under this policy.
The Nepal Tourism Board is pitching in with shuttle buses and 24/7 support staff. But security is still tense, curfews are enforced, the Nepali Army is on the streets, and the U.S. Embassy has urged citizens to stay put. Would you travel in such chaos?
