Foreign investor services
Setting up in Nepal from abroad takes more approvals than a local company. We prepare each one and file it for you.
Wholly foreign-owned company
Foreign investors can own all of a Nepali company in most sectors under the Foreign Investment and Technology Transfer Act 2075. We secure approval from the Department of Industry or Investment Board Nepal, register the company with the OCR and record the capital inflow with Nepal Rastra Bank.
Branch office registration
A foreign company can open a branch in Nepal to carry out a contract or project here. We register the branch with the OCR and set up its PAN and tax filings for the work done in Nepal.
Liaison (representative) office
A liaison office represents a foreign company and promotes its business in Nepal, but may not earn income here. We handle its approval and registration and keep its annual filings current.
