Do I need a visa to visit Bhutan

International Tourists:
Yes. All international visitors—except citizens of India, Bangladesh, and the Maldives—require a visa to visit Bhutan. Bhutan issues an electronic visa (e-Visa) only; visas are not issued by Bhutanese embassies or missions overseas.
The visa carries a one-time application fee of USD 40 and is issued upon payment of the applicable daily Sustainable Development Fee (SDF).

If you are organizing your trip through a licensed Bhutanese tour operator, it is best to have them arrange both your visa and SDF. There are no additional service charges for visa and SDF processing when your tour is arranged by an operator.

Indian Citizens:
Indian passport holders do not require a visa but must obtain an Entry Permit to enter Bhutan. This can be applied for online (e-Permit) or obtained on arrival at Paro Airport or at land border entry points such as Phuentsholing, upon payment of the applicable daily SDF.
