The visa will never be reduced to 40$ a month. Infact in light of the continual devaluantion of the dollar, the government has just announced an increase in the daily minimum rates from 200$ to 240$ per day per person. You may be be surprised to know this: there are very few vegetarians in Bhutan (and in the Himalayas). Foreigners cannot run business in Bhutan. John> welcome to this blog.

And,since this is the first comment, maybe it would be effective to inquire: could he reduce the visa cost to, say, about$40-/month? If someone may reply to this , what are the possibilities of Buddhist cooking(vegan -veg) around the main cities? Is it possible to get a business visa to run a resto? --Nepal is wearing thin these days for that possibility with the thought of earthquakes not far away. Best Wishes, john Driscoll Sirs:
