Visas, work permits and residency for foreigners in Nepal, plus guidance for Nepalis heading abroad. We deal with the Department of Immigration for you.
Nepal's immigration rules are spread across the Immigration Act 2049, its regulations and a stream of departmental notices, and they change often. We help foreign nationals obtain and renew business visas, non-tourist visas, marriage visas and residential visas, and coordinate the work permit that must come from the Department of Labour before certain visas can be issued. For companies with foreign investors or staff, we manage the whole file so nobody overstays.
We also advise Nepali citizens on documentation for study and employment abroad, help families with the paperwork for a foreign spouse, and assist with NRN (Non-Resident Nepali) cards and related property rights. When a visa is refused or a fine is imposed for overstaying, we explain the options and represent clients before the Department of Immigration.
If any of these sound familiar, you are in the right place. Every situation is different, so we always start with a short scoping conversation.
Step 1
We check which visa category fits your situation and whether a work permit or investment approval is needed first.
Step 2
We assemble passports, company documents, recommendation letters and photographs, and translate or notarise anything the department requires.
Step 3
We file online and in person at the Department of Immigration in Kalikasthan, track the application and respond to any requests for more information.
Step 4
Once approved, we record every expiry date and remind you well before renewal so you never face overstay penalties.
