Passport, permits and cash, on your body

RFID-blocking neck wallet

Under-clothing, RFID-lined

Your TIMS card and national park permit get checked repeatedly on trail and a lost passport in Nepal is a week in Kathmandu — the RFID lining is largely theatre, but the "attached to your body" part is not.

  • Permits reachable at a checkpoint without unpacking
  • Survives a bus roof, a hotel room and a crowded Thamel street

  • Sweaty against skin on a hot approach
  • RFID blocking solves a mostly theoretical problem
  • Awkward to reach under three layers

Do not buy this if: Nobody. Even if you dislike them, carry permits somewhere better than a jacket pocket.
