I'm a British national married to a Nepali lady who is also a British passport holder. We have been living in Kathmandu with our daughter for the last six years on an NRN visa. We love the people and culture of Nepal. We hate the pollution, and poor, often corrupt systems. We hope Nepal can get good governance to help it develop, so people don't have to travel abroad for work, leaving their families behind. Nepal could make it easier to get long term visas for digital nomads and retired people, as it would bring a lot of revenue to the country. Overall we are happy in beautiful, crazy Nepal. Never End Peace And Love

Oh wow Maya, let me tell you, you had a brilliant idea to make this video! It was so so interesting to hear all of these different stories that led some foreigners to choose to live in Nepal! When you are in Nepal, it doesn't feel like there are foreigners living there but there are actually more than you think, I guess! When I will be back in Nepal, I will definitely give a try to the bakery of Mathilde and the restaurant of Edward Lee (I loved his entrepreneurial spirit, I think that's what Nepal needs, good ideas and hard working smart people). I hope you will make a series with this theme, it would be so interesting to hear more stories and yours as well, Maya 😊

@ppen8359

14 күн бұрын

Not sure what advice you are looking for. The maximum length of stay in Nepal will be 150 days and you will get visa on arrival. There are other student and work visas but I am assuming that you will be visiting as a tourist. Nepal and Bhutan are very restricted countries to live permanently. For men, it is even more difficult because marrying Nepali woman does not get the man to stay in the country. A woman can marry a Nepali man and get to stay in Nepal. There is a retirement residential visa for long term stay, but you have to be over 60 with $20,000 in bank account and $2000/month income to qualify for that visa.

Namaste 🙏...

Yeah foreigners come to nepal while nepal youths go abroad because of unemployment

Girls, Kathmandu is a very advanced and a defferent place for country Nepal. Therefore go to Nepal with the mind sets that Kathmandu will be as worst or modern city next to your home towns.

The foremost reason people settling here is cost of living and somewhere the nature and climate.

Most of the foreigner choose nepal because its not highly developed country with no sky scrapers just beautiful open sky with low pollution and people feel less dizzy here . Main reason is the nature of our country ❤ and definitely for peaceful life 😊 I love my country Nepal ❤

@ppen8359

14 күн бұрын

I can answer that question but it will be a rude answer. The answer is that Nepal does not have an option for foreigners to live there. If you look at the interview then these are people who are working for NGO or visiting for work. In fact, Nepal would not even allow former Nepalis to live in Nepal if they take foreign citizenship. They have a NRN (Non Resident Nepali) card for former Nepalis but that is restrictive as well. KZread videos sell dreams and only provide partial information. The only hope is "resident visa." That visa is issued for people 60 years old or higher and requires you to both have $20,000 in bank and spend $20,000 per year living in Nepal. Also, it requires a proof of $2,000/month of steady income. Only if you are over 60, you should look for long term stay option in Nepal. For a guy, even marrying a Nepali woman would not get you to live in Nepal because Nepali government argues that "in our culture, a woman leaves her home to live with her husband."

Hello Mishima, It depends. Some find a job here before moving out (especially teachers and NGO expats). Some move to Nepal to study the Nepali language (or other studies) in a government-approved school (so it falls under a 'student visa'). Some are married to a Nepali. Some open a business here. But in all cases, it is important to know that the procedure is not as easy as moving to other countries (aka Thailand, Vietnam, Korea, Japan,...). Best of luck !
