Immigration Law, Work Permits, and Visa Compliance in Nepal
All foreign nationals planning to work, invest, or reside in Nepal must comply with the Immigration Act and the Department of Immigration regulations.
1. Business and Investor Visas
Foreign investors who have received DOI approval are eligible for Business Visas, which can be extended to dependents.
2. Labor Department Work Permits
Foreign employees hired by Nepalese companies must secure a non-tourist visa and work permit from the Department of Labor.
3. Compliance and Penalties
Overstaying, working on a tourist visa, or failing to report address changes can lead to fines, detention, or deportation.
