Nepal Travel Warning
U.S. Embassy Kathmandu released the following Warden Message on January 25, 2007:
This warden's message is being issued to alert American citizens to the security situation in Nepal's Terai region. American citizens are urged to exercise special caution and should be particularly vigilant about their personal safety.
Maoist splinter groups in the Terai continue to kidnap and murder Nepalese citizens. Additionally, there has been political agitation and civil unrest, including violent clashes between political groups and the Maoists as well as inter-communal violence and opportunistic criminality. Recently, protestors attacked vehicles belonging to the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights and the National Human Rights Commission. The random, unpredictable nature of attacks and demonstrations creates a risk to Americans of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Recently, violent protesters burned vehicles, threw rocks and burned tires to block traffic during street demonstrations.
Demonstrations can occur with little or no advanced notice and American citizens are urged to consult media sources and the Embassy's website (http://nepal.usembassy.gov) for current security information.
Given the nature, intensity and unpredictability of disturbances, U.S. citizens who travel to or reside in Nepal should factor the potential for violence into their plans, exercise special caution during times when demonstrations are announced, avoid areas where demonstrations are occurring or crowds are forming, avoid road travel during these periods and maintain a low profile. U.S. citizens are urged to register with the Consular Section of the Embassy by accessing the Department of State's travel registration site at https://travelregistration.state.gov or by personal appearance at the Consular Section. The Consular Section is located at the Yak and Yeti Hotel complex on Durbarmarg Street. The section can be reached directly at (977) (1) 444-5577 or through the Embassy switchboard. The Consular Section can provide updated information on travel and security.
For further information about security conditions in Nepal, American citizens are encouraged to refer to the Consular Information Sheet for Nepal and the current Travel Warning for Nepal issued on December 08, 2006(http://travel.state.gov). American citizens are also encouraged to refer to the Worldwide Caution Public Announcement for additional travel safety and security information. These documents are available on the homepage of the Department of State, Bureau of Consular Affairs at http://travel.state.gov and the American Embassy in Nepal's home page at http://nepal.usembassy.gov. The State Department's Bureau of Consular Affairs maintains an information line at 1-888-407-4747 toll free or (202) 501-4444 Monday through Friday (excluding U.S. Government holidays) from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Specific information may also be obtained by calling the Embassy at 977-1-444-5577 during working hours and at 977-1-441-1179 during evenings and weekends and asking for the Embassy Duty Officer.
