Travel
advisory against Nepal
The Government
of Sweden has lifted the travel advisory against Nepal
effective from September 7, 2006. It was stated in
a letter sent to Nepalese Embassy- UK by Dr. Roland
Dahlam, Consul General of Nepalese Consulate General
in Sweden, according to a news report of the NTB Media
Centre.
The
lifting of travel advisory will allow the Swedish
travellers to get travel insurance to visit Nepal.
Travel insurance is very common among the Swedish
population and will again be effective in connection
with travel to Nepal, he said. Dr. Dahlman said that
it would help to increase the number of visitors
from Sweden to Nepal.
