United Kingdom visa for Nepalese citizens
Visa required
🇳🇵 Nepalese passport → 🇬🇧 United Kingdom: 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: United Kingdom commonly asks for proof of onward travel (airline check-in and border).
Before the airport: run the "Will I board?" checklist for this route →
Beyond United Kingdom: 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, 🇧🇧 Barbados (90 days) — all 39 open destinations.
Going the other way? British citizens visiting Nepal need a visa on arrival, issued at the border.
