Bhutan visa charge

Bhutan is a real beauty. It is well-known for its mesmerizing beauty and stunning landscapes. This place has been an idyllic destination for Indian travellers. Most importantly, you were not charged any fee to enter the city but there’s bad news for all the travel lovers. If you are an Indian tourist and were planning to visit Bhutan for a long time then you may need to drop or postpone your plans as now you will be charged Rs. 1,200 per day.

If you want to avoid paying Rs. 1,200, then you may need to visit there before July.

Why this fees?

Bhutan Visa Fees

Bhutanese Government has launched a new scheme, under that they will be charging this amount as Sustainable Development Fee (SDF) from all the Indian tourists. They have decided to end the provision of free entry and have set the fee to enter Bhutan. This applies to all Indian Passport holders from July 2020. Other countries that are included in the scheme are Maldives and Bangladesh.

Who are exempted from this fee?

This fee does not apply to children between the age of 6 and 12 years.

Do you know how much now Indian tourists will have to pay?

Bhutan Visa for Indian

The SDF for Indian tourists is quite less compared to the citizen of other countries who need to pay USD 65 i.e. Rs. 4,631 along with a compulsory flat cover charge of USD 250 i.e. Rs. 17,811 per day. The decision to introduce such a fee was passed by the country’s National Assembly as the Tourism Levy and Exemption Bill of Bhutan, 2020.

The documents were an Indian passport with a minimum of 6 months validity and Voter ID Card issued by the Election Commission of India. Indian nationals did not require a visa to visit Bhutan.
