Travel documents and entry requirements for Kathmandu to Najaf flights
Passport and visa requirements
Before flying from Kathmandu to Najaf, ensure your passport is valid for at least 6 months beyond your travel dates. Most travelers will need a visa to enter Iraq. You can check the latest visa requirements and apply online through the official Iraqi e-Visa portal here. Nepalese citizens traveling from Kathmandu to Najaf must obtain an Iraqi visa in advance, as Nepal is not eligible for visa on arrival and is not included in the list of nationalities permitted to automatically use Iraq’s standard e‑Visa system, although some applicants may still be able to apply online depending on updated eligibility and should verify this before starting the process. Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond arrival and contain blank pages, and you may also be asked to provide proof of accommodation, a return or onward ticket, and evidence of sufficient funds. A separate e‑Visa system exists for the Kurdistan Region of Iraq that requires a local guarantor and is valid only within that region, meaning it cannot be used for entry into Federal Iraq cities such as Najaf. Iraq has suspended visa on arrival for most nationalities, so pre‑approved entry documentation is essential for Nepalese travelers.
