Choose a plan and pay on the product page (card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal or crypto). 2. The eSIM QR code arrives by email; install it before you travel (Settings > Mobile/Cellular > Add eSIM). 3. On arrival, select the eSIM for mobile data and turn on data roaming for it. Your own SIM stays in the phone for calls and SMS. Data-only: the eSIM has no phone number. Requires an eSIM-compatible, carrier-unlocked phone. ## Nepal from the UK: visa fees, and trekking without signal British passport holders need a visa, for up to 90 days. Nepal's Department of Immigration lets you apply and pay online before you go, or apply online up to 15 days ahead and collect and pay at Kathmandu airport: 30 US dollars for 15 days, 50 for 30 days and 125 for 90 days, with extensions at 3 dollars a day. Your passport needs six months' validity, and border officers can ask for travel insurance and your first night's booking (gov.uk, updated 1 October 2026). There is no non-stop flight from Heathrow, so you connect on the way. Nepal is four hours 45 minutes ahead of the UK in British Summer Time and five hours 45 in winter - one of the few places with a quarter-hour offset. ## What works on the trail - and what your UK plan costs The Foreign Office warns that mobile coverage is limited in remote areas, including long stretches of the Annapurna Circuit, and suggests considering a satellite phone. An eSIM covers Kathmandu, Pokhara and the villages the networks reach; download offline maps and leave your plan with your lodge or guide. Independent trekkers must use a local guide or porter. Nepal is among the dearest places to roam from the UK: EE charges £16 a day for only 10MB, O2's bolt-ons start at £26 for 100MB, Vodafone charges £1.20 per MB or £15 for an eight-day 50MB pass, and Three has no data service in Nepal at all. Most sockets are universal and take a UK plug. Convert all your rupees before you leave, and declare over 5,000 US dollars in cash. ## FAQ ### How much is a Nepal visa for British citizens? 30 US dollars for 15 days, 50 for 30 days or 125 for 90 days, paid online in advance or on arrival at Kathmandu airport (Nepal Department of Immigration, checked 9 October 2026). ### Does Three work in Nepal?
