TRAVEL TO NEPAL ON RTD & TRANSIT VISA ISSUE

[appwarez]

I’m currently helping someone plan their travel to Nepal, and I’m hoping to get some clarification and advice from anyone with similar experience.

The traveler is a holds a Canadian Refugee Travel Document (RTD).

We have already completed the online pre-arrival registration for Nepal, but when we contacted the Nepali Consular Office in Ottawa, they clearly stated that a visa must be obtained before departure, and that visa on arrival is NOT available for RTD holders.

1. Sponsorship Letter from a Nepali Citizen addressed to the Embassy of Nepal, Ottawa.
2. A copy of the citizenship certificate of the sponsor.

Also, If you or someone you know has flown this route on RTD, please share your experience. We want to avoid visa issues during layovers and are ready to consider longer or slightly more expensive routes if they simplify the visa situation.

If anyone has recent experience or advice to share (especially successful entries or known issues), your comments would be very helpful. We want to make sure everything is in order before booking flights and making further plans.

Hi, I received Nepal’s visa recently, you need a sponsor from Nepal and their citizenship certificate. if you are in Montreal I know someone that can help you in this regard or you can contact a travel agency in your area. And one of my friend has gone to Nepal from Canada with the travel document, he took air India flight from Toronto to New Delhi then New Delhi to Kathmandu. I think you can fly with Qatar airways too as long as your layover in Qatar is under 24 hours, that’s all I know.

are you also planning to travel to Nepal?

Yes, I have a refugee travel document from Canada. I am just wondering if the Visa period starts from the date of issue or the date of entry?
