Important Notes:
- For tourist visas, the maximum period of stay granted on arrival is typically 30 days. If you intend to stay longer or if you're applying for other visa types (e.g., business, work, student), it's recommended to apply for the visa in advance through a Nepalese embassy or consulate in your home country.

- Make sure to carry sufficient funds and appropriate travel insurance for the duration of your stay in Nepal.
