Nepal currently treats all private cryptocurrency activity as illegal rather than as a taxable investment, so there is no clear, official personal tax regime on crypto gains for an individual relocating there.
“सर्वसाधारणलाई सूचित गरिन्छ कि भर्चुअल करेंसी (जस्तै: बिटकोइन, ड्यास, इत्यादि) तथा नेटवर्क मार्केटिङ, अनधिकृत आवधिकिक बचत तथा सहकारी प्रकारका गतिविधिहरू नेपाल राष्ट्र बैंकबाट स्वीकृत नभएका र प्रचलित कानूनी व्यवस्थाविपरीत रहेका कारण यस्ता गतिविधि नगर्न हार्दिक अनुरोध गरिन्छ।” — Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB)
