Nepal’s Department of Transport Management (DoTM) has partially lifted restrictions on importing public vehicles. The change specifically benefits vehicles for which letters of credit were established on or before May 23rd. This applies only to vehicles that have already physically arrived in Nepal. The decision aims to address logistical issues and fulfill commitments to importers who had initiated purchases before the import ban was implemented. Officials clarified that the easing of restrictions is limited to this specific category of vehicles. The move is expected to alleviate some pressure on businesses affected by the previous import policies. No further details regarding broader import policy changes were provided.
