The Embassy of Nepal USA, with the cooperation of the Government of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, rescued three Nepali nationals - Ms. Sersang Tamang, Ms. Tirtha Lama Waiba, and Ms. Yangjen Sherpa - who were stranded in Trinidad and Tobago for over a month.
Ms. Tamang departed from Trinidad and Tobago on August 21, 2023 and will arrive in Kathmandu on Aug 23, 2023. Similarly, Ms. Waiba and Ms. Sherpa are scheduled to depart from Trinidad and Tobago on August 24, 2023 and will arrive in Kathmandu on August 26, 2023. These Nepali nationals were stranded in Piarco International Airport due to cancellation of their return flight to Nepal upon arrival in Trinidad and Tobago, which complicated their immigration status.
The Embassy of Nepal expresses its sincere thanks to the Government of Trinidad and Tobago for their cooperation in this entire process. The Embassy also thanks Tej Bahadur Lama in Trinidad and Tobago for communicating the Embassy about the status of these Nepali nationals.
The Embassy of Nepal urges Nepali nationals intending to travel to the Caribbean countries for tourism and other purposes to take necessary measures to ensure that their purpose of visit matches with the category of visa they have been issued.
