The Embassy of Nepal in New Delhi announced new guidelines for obtaining a travel No Objection Certificate (NOC) effective from December 28, 2023, with amendments on July 30, 2024. Nepali citizens traveling to countries like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, and Russia through Indian airports now need an NOC. However, those with valid Foreign Employment Permits or residence cards for countries such as the USA, UK, Canada, and Schengen states are exempt. The service fee for the NOC is INR 1000 per person, payable via bank or QR code. Contact details are provided for further inquiries.
