Nepalese Entry Requirements at Siddharthanagar
 

Hey all,

I'm currently in Varanasi, India with my UK registered Tenere. I'm looking to enter Nepal in the next week or so but I'm hearing differing things about entry requirements.

I've been told that I can get myself and the bike over the border with a crisp, unused $100 US bill, and that as a foreigner that's the only way to get a visa on arrival for the land borders.

Is this true? Has anyone done this in the last couple of months and can confirm it?

Also: is there any weirdness with the Carnets on the Indian or Nepali sides? I wouldn't think there would be, but doesn't hurt to ask...

Cheers,

visa on arrival is possible at border, dunno about needing a crisp USD note though! I can't remember what currency I paid in.

The carnet guys filled out my carnet there whilst the monkeys stole their lunch!
