Tourist entry and volunteering are not necessarily the same 🇧🇹
Bhutan has separate immigration categories for tourism and employment. Do not assume that a tourist visa or permit automatically covers volunteering, internships or productive work exchangesA work exchange is an arrangement in which a traveller contributes an agreed amount of help to a host in return for benefits such as accommodation, meals or learning opportunities. Conditions vary by host.. Ask the host how the activity is classified and confirm the appropriate immigration requirements with Bhutan’s Department of Immigration before travelling.
