Apart from the Tibet Entry Permit , issued by Tibet Tourism Bureau, there are another three kind of permits required for tourists who want to visit Mt. Kailash, including Alien’s travel Permit, Foreign affairs permit, and Military permit, which are issued by different part of government. And you can only obtain all the travel permits from a Tibet local authorized tour company by making all your travel arrangement with them. Tibet Vista(Tibettravel.org) can arrange all the travel permits and Tibet tour for you.
As Mt. Kailash is also a holy place for Hinduism in India, thousands of Indian pilgrims will make their spiritual journey to Kailash every year. However, their permit formalities are different from other foreign nationalities. There are only a handful of authorized companies that operate the Kailash tour for Indian pilgrims and obtain the related travel permits, as Indian pilgrims are only allowed for the Kailash region and not for other areas of Tibet.
