Step-by-step: how to apply from Nepal

1. Confirm the visa type and current requirements on the official portal (https://www.evisa.gov.tr/en/tour — Türkiye e-Visa portal (for Nepalis with active Schengen / UK / Ireland / US visa or residence permit) · https://visa.vfsglobal.com/npl/en/tur — VFS Türkiye Nepal (sticker visa intake for Nepalis without supporting visa) · https://katmandu.be.mfa.gov.tr — Embassy of Türkiye Kathmandu · https://en.goc.gov.tr — DGMM (Directorate General of Migration Management — long-stay residence permits, work permits, citizenship)).
2.
