Nepal is a landlocked country sharing a border with India to the East, West, and South and the Autonomous Region of Tibet (China) to the North. This makes it easy access India and China.

Ports of Entry are classified as ‘By Land’ and ‘By Air’. Apart from ports of entry by land, foreign nationals can also fly directly to Nepal through the only International Airport, which is known as Tribhuvan International Airport. The other two international airports (Pokhara International Airport and Gautam Buddha International Airport) are not operating regularly at the moment.
