Note: Currently, to enter Tibet from Kathmandu, in addition to a Tibet Permit, you need to apply for a Chinese Group Visa in Kathmandu first. The group visa requires all listed members to enter and leave China from the same city on the same day. Currently, flying from Kathmandu to Chengdu/Kunming/Chongqing first and then entering Tibet does not require a Chinese Group Visa (simpler process). Please contact Asia Odyssey Travel (AOT) for the latest information on the China visa and Tibet permit policies for entering Tibet from Kathmandu.
