About Bhutan

Bhutan, the 'Land of the Thunder Dragon', measures success by Gross National Happiness. It's a carbon-negative kingdom of forested valleys, fortress-monasteries and prayer flags.

Indian nationals don't need a visa — just an entry permit, which we arrange along with the Sustainable Development Fee.
