    Bhutan: all other foreign ordinary passports requiring eVisa before entry

    The Department of Immigration's exhaustive entry page says all other foreign nationals must obtain an eVisa before entering Bhutan. The eVisa classification rests on that explicit term, not merely on the availability of an online application.

    • The official portal says applications must be submitted at least 15 days before intended arrival; the tourism authority describes review within five working days after submission, so travellers should follow the stricter stated lead time.
    • Tourist stay is stated as a maximum of 90 days. The visa application fee is USD 40 and the current tourism page states a USD 100-per-day adult SDF; the portal describes a USD 200 base rate with a USD 100 incentive through 31 August 2027.
    • A valid SAARC Visa Exemption Sticker is a special-document exception to prior eVisa/entry-permit clearance; it is not an ordinary-passport nationality-wide exemption.
    • Thailand and Switzerland visa-on-arrival treatment on the entry page is expressly limited to diplomatic or official passports, not these ordinary-passport policies.
    • Does not decide residence, work, study, transit, crew, border-pass, diplomatic, official, service, special-document, security, health, refusal or other case-specific rules.
