How do I pay for my placement?
On Arrival:
Most people choose to pay on arrival as this avoids incurring multiple wire transfer costs. The agreed fee is to be paid on the same day or next day of your arrival at the VSN Office in Kathmandu and can be paid in Nepali rupees, American Dollars, Pounds Sterling or Euros in cash. This will be arranged as part of your induction. We only accept payment in installments on placements over 3 months.
In advance:
If you would prefer to pay in advance you can do a wire transfer of money to our account directly or by using Western Union. Nepali bank accounts are not approved to receive Paypal payments at this time so just Contact Us by email and we can send you our bank details.
Preparing before you leave to volunteer:
Once you have decided to come and reserved your place you can find information on what to bring and what to expect on arrival in our Volunteer Welcome page.
