Travel Permits

Other documents

Other documents are the same as you travel to other places of China - you need hold a valid passport with valid visa (issued by Chinese Embassy).

If you are coming to Lhasa from Katmandu, you'd better get China visa from Katmandu because no matter you've already got the visa in your country or not, you must get another new visa in Katmandu, which is regulated in an official memo between China and Nepal.

Treaty between Nepal and China

China Embassy in Katmandu is just open for Visa service from 9:30am to 11:30am [local time] every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. When you apply for the China visa, you need a China visa invitation letter (we will help settle this down), because China Embassy need that and so that they know that you are organized by a legal travel agency in Tibet, otherwise you can not get China visa, let alone enter Tibet.
