Visa Requirement for Bhutan
To enter Bhutan, visitors (except from those from Bangladesh, India, and the Maldives) need to get a visa, which can only be obtained from an authorized Bhutanese travel operator.
The visa procedure requires full payment for the travel package, which includes a USD 40 visa fee. Clearance is granted when payment has been confirmed.
A visa clearance letter, which is necessary to enter Bhutan, is then provided. The authentic visa is stamped into your passport upon your arrival at Paro International Airport. This process ensures that visitors visiting Bhutan go on guided excursions.
