Built for the trekkers we couldn't find a service for.

This site exists because of a frustrating week trying to figure out how to get an Annapurna trekking permit before flying to Pokhara.

The official sources contradict each other. The travel forums are out of date. Half of the agencies in Thamel will tell you that you legally need a guide (you don't, for ACAP). The other half will sell you the permit and a "mandatory" guide bundle for $120 that you absolutely don't need.

After doing the trek solo — no porter, no guide, no agency — and realising the whole permit process took 30 minutes on a clunky government website that occasionally rejects foreign credit cards, the gap was obvious. Independent trekking in Nepal is a growing market. Independent trekkers tend to be the kind of people who'd happily fill a form themselves and pay a small premium to have someone else handle the paperwork in NPR. There just wasn't a service that catered to them honestly.

So that's what this is. We charge a flat service fee on top of the permit cost (less if you're a group), pay NTNC in rupees with our local card, and deliver the official permit PDF to your inbox usually within a few hours. We're explicit that we're not a trekking agency. We don't sell guides, porters, packages, transport, accommodation, or any of the other things you can buy on arrival in Kathmandu if you want them. We sell permits. Cleanly.

If you're the kind of trekker who reads route reports, plans your own itinerary, knows what gear you're carrying, and just wants the bureaucracy handled — we built this for you.
