Policy Update: Automatic Route for Foreign Investment Approval in Nepal

The Government of Nepal has implemented a significant reform allowing foreign investment approvals to be processed under an automatic route mechanism for eligible sectors and thresholds.

This regulatory shift is expected to:
• Reduce administrative delays
• Enhance procedural efficiency
• Strengthen investor confidence
• Improve Nepal’s investment climate

From a legal perspective, this reform signals a progressive move toward simplifying compliance under Nepal’s foreign investment regime. However, investors must still carefully evaluate:
• Sectoral restrictions
• Threshold requirements
• Reporting obligations
• Compliance under applicable laws and regulations

Strategic legal structuring remains essential to mitigate risk and ensure regulatory conformity.

Our firm provides comprehensive advisory services on:
✔ Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) structuring
✔ Regulatory approvals and compliance
✔ Joint ventures and cross-border transactions
✔ Corporate governance and risk assessment

For tailored legal advice on investing in Nepal, please feel free to connect.

Opening a Company in Nepal as a Foreigner ? 🇳🇵

If you are a foreign national planning to establish a business in Nepal, it is important to understand that you must go through the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) process.

Foreign investment in Nepal is primarily governed by the Foreign Investment and Technology Transfer Act (F***A) and regulated by the Department of Industry (DOI) or the Investment Board (depending on the investment size and sector).

🔎 Key Steps in the FDI Process:
✔️ Approval of foreign investment
✔️ Capital injection through formal banking channels
✔️ Tax registration and industry-specific licenses
✔️ Company incorporation with the Office of the Company Registrar
✔️ Compliance with sectoral restrictions and thresholds

⚖️ Certain sectors are restricted or prohibited for foreign investment, and minimum investment thresholds apply. Proper structuring at the beginning can prevent serious compliance issues later.

If you or your clients are considering investing in Nepal, make sure you follow the correct legal pathway.

📩 Feel free to reach out to us for professional guidance.
