- All citizens, except those from India, need a visa to enter Bhutan, which must be applied for in advance.

- Carry either Ngultrum (Bhutan's currency) or Indian Rupees (INR), as both are accepted in Bhutan.
- Use your right hand when giving or receiving something. Pass holy sites keeping them on your right side.
- US dollars are widely accepted in Bhutan, but it is advisable to exchange some currency for Bhutan's currency (Ngultrum or Indian Rupee) for small purchases and in remote areas. There are few ATM machines available, primarily in major cities like Thimphu, where international ATM/credit cards may or may not work.
