Nepal is having a banner year: international arrivals are running at record pace, with monthly figures topping 100,000 and full-year projections of 1.3–1.5 million visitors. But who is actually coming? The 2026 data tells a clear story — a huge South Asian base, fast-growing East Asian and Western markets, and a genuinely global spread. Here's the breakdown.

Nepal arrivals 2026 — the headline

  • On track for 1.3–1.5 million international visitors this year
  • India is the #1 source market by far
  • China and the USA are the next two biggest
  • Strong growth from Australia, the UK, Germany and beyond

The top source markets (April 2026)

In a representative recent month, India led with around 25,000 arrivals (roughly a quarter of the total), followed by China and the United States. Behind them came Australia, Bangladesh, the UK, Germany, Malaysia, Russia and France — a spread that shows Nepal pulling travelers from every continent, not just its neighbours.

Top source markets — April 2026 arrivals
CountryArrivals
🇮🇳 India~25,200
🇨🇳 China~11,700
🇺🇸 USA~8,700
🇦🇺 Australia~5,300
🇧🇩 Bangladesh~5,200
🇬🇧 UK~4,900
🇩🇪 Germany~3,100

What it means

The mix matters: India provides the dependable base, but the rapid growth from China, the US and Europe shows Nepal's appeal broadening worldwide — and the autumn (Sep–Nov) peak season is when these numbers spike hardest. Practical takeaway for travelers: the best teahouses, guides and dates get booked early, especially for Everest and Annapurna in high season.
