Kathmandu, Nepal, September 17, 2025: The United States of America (USA) has cautioned its citizens about traveling to Nepal. Updating its travel advisory to Nepal, the U.S. State Department has warned its travelers to “reconsider” going to the area due to the recent civil unrest.
The department has given a “Level 3: Reconsider Travel” advisory to Nepal because of recent protests and demonstrations, especially in Kathmandu and Pokhara, that have turned violent.
The travelers should have a plan to leave Nepal that doesn’t rely on the U.S. government, monitor local media, follow the instructions of local authorities, prepare to evacuate hotels at a moment’s notice and avoid crowds and demonstrations; the department has stated in its travel advisory.
The USA has four travel advisories from level 1 to level 4. Level 1 is normal precautions or the lowest level of advisory that cautions just about that there is some risk in that area, and travelers should take precautions while on their visit while Level 2 is about increased caution if there is a heightened risk for safety and security in that area, and travelers need to take extra caution.
Likewise, level 3 is reconsider travel advisory that suggests about serious risks to safety asking the travelers to reconsider about their travel plans to this destination while level 4 completely suggests not to travel to any destinations.
