You must apply for the Chinese Group Visa from the Chinese embassy in Nepal. Hence your travel agency in Tibet has to send you a visa invitation to Nepal. You will get your visa invitation letter once when you are in Nepal. In Nepal, you have to seek someone’s help for your visa. For that, we have an agent in Kathmandu to help you with the visa. It takes 3 to 4 business days(please consider checking for the National Holidays of PRC and the International holidays) to get your visa. The visa processing fees and the service may differ.
