⚠️Common Reasons Nepal Tourist Visa on Arrival — 15, 30, or 90 days (Tribhuvan Airport and land borders) Applications Are Refused5

• !
  Your nationality is not eligible for visa on arrival — nationals of Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria (and certain other countries) must obtain a visa from a Nepali diplomatic mission before travel; arriving without one leads to refused entry.
• !
  Incomplete application — a missing letter of invitation, police clearance certificate, or other supporting document requested by the Nepali mission.
• !
  Insufficient proof of funds for the stay, or no confirmed onward / return ticket out of Nepal.
• !
  Doubt about the genuineness of the tourism purpose, or about your intention to leave Nepal within the visa validity.
• !
  A passport with less than six months’ validity, or a prior overstay or immigration violation in Nepal.

Refusal grounds are at the discretion of the deciding officer and can change. This list is informational — always verify current requirements at the official government portal.
