The Nepali government has decided to issue free visas to Chinese Tourists from 2016. This new decision allows Chinese tourists to enter Nepal without the need to pay visa fees. Such facility had only been applicable for SAARC tourists until now.
The decisions was announced by the Hon’ble Foreign Minister Kamal Thapa during his visit to China to meet his counterpart in Beijing.
The move has been welcomed by Trekking Agencies Association of Nepal. It is hoped that this step will help Nepal rebuild and recover  its tourism industry following the devastating earthquake of last year.
China is the second-largest source of tourists to Nepal. The move is expected to increase the number of Chinese tourists visiting Nepal in the coming years.
