Since govt of Nepal is implementing Machine Readable Passport in April, you should wait until Nepal Embassy start issueing new passport.

Make ur passport before March 31st, if it's going to expire soon. Hand-written passports made before March 31st are valid until the year 2015. If they don't issue MRP (Machine Readable Passport) in time, and ur passport expires, u won't be able to travel abroad... since passports (hand-written) issued after April 1 is not going to be recognized in airports for travel. Even they launch MRP, it takes atleast 8-10 weeks before you get the passport. There is no certainty that MRP is going to be launched anytime soon... cross ur fingers, if u wanna take a chance! Good Luck!! Last edited: 02-Mar-10 01:05 PM

@grgDai  u don't need to be in DC to renew ur passport... call Nepalese Embassy in DC, and ask them the documents they need for renewing ur passport... I think u need to send ur passport with other documents and renewing fee ($150, i think), and they will send u ur new passport in 5-6 weeks, or so.. so, best thing u can do is to call the Embassy first, and ask them!! Hope that helps! Last edited: 02-Mar-10 06:56 PM
