Thailand is one of the most popular travel destinations for Nepali tourists  known for its beautiful beaches, vibrant cities like Bangkok and Phuket, amazing food, and budget-friendly travel options. But before you pack your bags, one of the biggest questions is:

Do Nepali citizens need a visa to visit Thailand?

The answer is Yes — Nepali passport holders must obtain a visa before traveling to Thailand for tourism or business purposes with some exceptions.

 Visa Requirement for Nepali Citizens

• Citizenship copy of last and 1st page
• Passport size photo with white background

Thailand e-Visa

Since early 2025, Thailand requires Nepali visa applicants to use the Thai e-Visa platform to submit applications online before travel.

• Submit the TDAC online 72 hours before arrival

• It’s free and mandatory for entry
