Thailand visa for Nepalese citizens

Visa required
🇳🇵 Nepalese passport → 🇹🇭 Thailand: yes — a visa arranged in advance.

How it works

You'll need a visa arranged in advance through the embassy or consulate (or an authorised visa centre): application form, passport photos, fee, and often proof of funds, accommodation and onward travel. Start early — processing can take weeks.

Heads-up: Thailand commonly asks for proof of onward travel (airline check-in; immigration on arrival).

Before the airport: run the "Will I board?" checklist for this route →

Beyond Thailand: the Nepal passport

The 🇳🇵 Nepal passport ranks #191 of 199 worldwide, entering 39 destinations without a visa arranged in advance (see the world ranking).

Also visa-free on the Nepal passport: 🇸🇬 Singapore (30 days), 🇮🇳 India, 🇵🇭 Philippines (30 days) — all 39 open destinations.

Going the other way? Thai citizens visiting Nepal need a visa on arrival, issued at the border.
