A directory of this platform's complete, reviewed legal guides for the Indian community connected to Nepal, organized by topic.

Complete Guides for NRIs Connected to Nepal

  • Property for NRIs in Nepal

    Why the 1950 Treaty's open border does not simplify Power of Attorney legalization, and the genuinely unresolved question over Indian nationals' land-ownership rights in Nepal itself.

  • Inheritance for NRIs in Nepal

    Nepal's National Civil Code, 2074 (2017) -- a single secular civil code, unlike India's religion-specific personal laws -- and its equal daughters'-inheritance-rights reform.

  • Tax for NRIs in Nepal

    The India-Nepal DTAA's confirmed dividend, interest, and royalty rates, and the two gaps this platform flags -- no separate FTS article, and a narrow, royalties-only MFN clause.

  • Immigration for NRIs in Nepal

    The 1950 Treaty of Peace and Friendship's visa-free open border, the Terai's centuries-old Indian-origin community, and Nepal's recent political transition.

  • Family for NRIs in Nepal

    Why Nepal is not a Section 44A reciprocating territory, and the Section 13 fresh-civil-suit route for enforcing a Nepal decree in India.

  • Business for NRIs in Nepal

    FITTA 2019's minimum capital threshold, company registration via the Office of Company Registrar, and why Indian investors get no formal statutory preference.

  • Compliance for NRIs in Nepal

    NRE/NRO/FCNR accounts, the USD 1 million NRO repatriation scheme, and the fixed NPR-INR currency peg relevant to cross-border transfers.
