Yes, the foreign relation coordination office is where Gael indicated. This is where one has to go with the proposal and other necessary documents. They levy some fees and if I understood correctly the office also assigns a local supervisor. But it may depend....Please check the website. It may tell something.

Hi

CIR at TU is functioning again in a new temporary location 5 minutes away from the VC building. The research visa process is open. The VC office continues to be closed due to strike action.

all the best

Namaste 🙏
I hope you do not mind this use of the list, but I am looking for advice on obtaining a research visa in Nepal. 

I am working with a PhD student (from the UK) who is currently in Kathmandu (on a tourist visa) and they are trying to obtain a research visa through the Centre for International Relations (CIR) at TU. However, the CIR has apparently been closed for some time (I think due to strikes) and the student is having no luck.  

I just wondered if anyone on this list might have any advice or ideas on this?

We really appreciate your help, many thanks indeed,

Sam
