尼泊尔：出发前须知

要点

  • Most nationalities get a tourist visa on arrival in Kathmandu: USD 30 (15 days), 50 (30 days) or 125 (90 days); fill in the online form at nepaliport.immigration.gov.np beforehand to save time.

A few nationalities must obtain a visa from a Nepalese embassy.

哪里换钱划算

  • Licensed money changers in Thamel (Kathmandu) and Lakeside (Pokhara) display rates set close to Nepal Rastra Bank rates
  • Bank counters (e.g. Nabil, Himalayan Bank)

哪里不宜换钱

  • Unlicensed changers and hotels
  • Exchanging in trekking villages (no ATMs and poor rates)

自动取款机: ATMs in Kathmandu and Pokhara charge about NPR 500 per foreign-card withdrawal with limits around NPR 10,000–35,000. There are almost no ATMs on trekking routes—withdraw enough before you set off.

小费: 10% service charge is common in restaurants. Tipping trekking guides and porters is expected (often 10–15% of the trek cost).

  • Cards work in mid-range hotels and shops in cities, often with a 3–4% surcharge; treks are cash only.
  • Russian-issued Visa/Mastercard cards do not work abroad; bring USD cash.
