詳細な内訳
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from your Nepal arrival date and have at least 4 blank pages for visa and permit stamps. You need four recent passport photos, 35 by 45 mm with a white background, which are used for the TIMS Card, the Shey Phoksundo permit, the restricted area permit, and the visa extension if needed. A signed trekking agency agreement is required, because Lower Dolpo cannot be trekked independently.
The restricted area application form includes your full name, passport number, nationality, occupation, duration of stay, and entry and exit points. Your agency files this with the Department of Immigration in Kathmandu, along with the $10 per person per day restricted area fee, with a minimum 9 day charge of $90. The Shey Phoksundo National Park Permit costs $30 and the TIMS Card is $10, both arranged through your agency.

答えに影響するもの
Several variables change the document requirements. The trek duration affects the restricted area fee, because the $10 per day rate has a 9 day minimum. The nationality matters, because Indian nationals pay different rates and SAARC citizens get discounts. The route choice also matters, because crossing into Upper Dolpo requires a separate Upper Dolpo Restricted Area Permit at $500 per person for the first 10 days.
- トレッキングの期間: 9 day minimum at $10 per day.
- 国籍: SAARC and Indian nationals get discounted rates.
- ルートの選択: Upper Dolpo extension adds $500 permit.
- 処理時間: 5 to 7 working days in Kathmandu.
予約のヒント/実践的なアドバイス
Email your agency scanned copies of your passport, four passport photos, and your flight itinerary at least 3 weeks before departure, because permit processing takes 5 to 7 working days and the Department of Immigration closes on Nepali holidays. Carry the original permits and your passport with you on the trek, because checkpoint rangers in Dunai and Ringmo check originals. Pack a photocopy of your passport and visa separately, because lost originals are easier to replace with copies on hand.
Bring extra passport photos for visa extensions and emergency permits, because teahouse lodges and helicopter companies sometimes require them. Verify that your agency has paid the restricted area fee in full before you fly to Nepalgunj, because unpaid permits cause delays at the Juphal checkpoint.
代替案との比較
Compared with Upper Mustang permit documents, which require a similar restricted area application but cost $500 for the first 10 days, Lower Dolpo is cheaper at $90 minimum. Compared with Upper Dolpo permit documents, which add the $500 Upper Dolpo Restricted Area Permit on top of the Lower Dolpo fees, Lower Dolpo alone is significantly less expensive. Compared with the Manaslu Circuit permit documents, which require a Manaslu Restricted Area Permit at $70 for the first 7 days, Lower Dolpo is similarly priced but requires the additional national park permit.
避けるべきよくある間違い
Do not assume you can trek Lower Dolpo independently, because the restricted area permit requires a registered agency agreement. Avoid sending low resolution passport scans, because the Department of Immigration rejects blurry images. Never forget the 9 day minimum charge, because trekkers on shorter itineraries still pay $90. Do not arrive in Nepalgunj without original permits, because checkpoint rangers in Juphal will turn you back.
