Understand

To arrive

Citizens of all nationalities, except Indians, must apply for a visa at least 30 days in advance. The cost is $20 for a 14-day visit and can be extended once. However, the visa is not given until the visitation reservations are paid with tourist agencies, which cost around US$ 200 per day, including accommodation, meal, guide and transportation. Visits are managed by private companies, but the rate is set by the government and is non-negotiable. They are a little cheaper in low season and for groups. Once the visitation is paid, visas are given at the only two points of entry into the country: at immigration at the airport in stop or at the bus station in the city of Phuentsholing. A third point, between Samdrup Jongkhar and assam, in India, is only used to leave the country. It is not necessary to go to a consulate, which by the way are few in the world:
