Hello there,

I would appreciate if someone can help me regarding the issue of sending 15 months old boy back home. I am thinking of sending my child with my cousin back to Nepal for couple of months as his both sets of grandparents havent seen him at all. I cant go right now because of the work. Will there be any problems regarding immigration as he is US citizen? Is there any paper works to be done from my side? I really do not have any idea and couldnt find info regarding this matter anywhere else. I hope someone has gone through similar case and can share experince.
Thank you very much.

Roshani

I'd advise against sending a child this young to Nepal.
Adults unaccustomed to Nepal's conditions have a difficult enough time despite precautions.
While a child may sleep through most of the trip, others could be very uncomfortable.

Children anticipating travel to Nepal should have had the recommended inocculations prior to departure, sleep under mosquito netting, and be carefully monitored.
Certain afflictions could leave a child this young dead within 24 hours.
Meningitis, hepatitis, TB, malaria and giardia are some of the more prevelant and/or lethal ones.
During a short visit, one child of 3 had severe diarhea, bleeding, weight loss, went undiagnosed and came close to loosing his life.
This despite having received most of the suggested vaccinations.
Somel recommended vaccinations may not be easily available here.
Private practioners in Ktm provide them but ideally, they should be taken over several weeks and completed prior to departure.
Upon return, it would be wise to be tested and treated for parasites.

For travel abroad, the guardian would need to demonstrate both parents' authorization.
Perhaps your airline/travel agent could provide you with some advice.

We have sent our 3 year old daughter with my brother. It was for a short visit. They did not have any problem on their way to Nepal but, a bit problem in Tribhuvan Airport to bring her back to USA. They had a notorized travel approval letter from both of us and we had given them every right to make legal, travel and medical decision during the visit. I think they had to explain every thing at TIA and finally they were able to bring her back with them. If you want more information, send us an email at kabre6@yahoo.com

just you need notorized letter that you( both parents) are giving permission to take care of your children by his grandparents in nepal. There shouldn't be any immigration problem during travel. You can get Nepali Visa from here or also can get in TIA and visa is free.
Make sure his vacination record is up to date and send all his medical record with him.
Good luck.

If your boy is travelling with your cousin then you need to maintaion his name in the notorized letter too.
