About gold in Nepal
Nepal's gold market quotes two distinct grades side by side: "Hallmark" (छापावाल, chhapawal) gold, certified 24-karat at a minimum 99.5% purity by the Nepal Bureau of Standards and Metrology, and "Tejabi" (तेजाबी) gold, an approximately 22-karat grade traditionally verified using a nitric-acid touchstone test rather than a certified stamp. Both rates are published daily by the Federation of Nepal Gold and Silver Dealers' Association (FENEGOSIDA), and buyers should confirm which of the two grades a quoted price actually refers to.
Market notes for Nepal
Nepal's 2026 budget doubled the customs duty on gold imports from 10% to 20% -- pushing domestic gold prices to record highs -- while simultaneously abolishing the 2% luxury surcharge that had previously applied to gold and gold jewellery.
Buying gold in Nepal
Nepal's 2026 changes moved in two different directions at once -- customs duty up, luxury surcharge gone -- so the net effect on a specific piece depends on how it was sourced; ask a Nepali dealer to break down the current duty and any remaining VAT before comparing a quote to KmalServico's live reference.
Tax and duty notes for Nepal
Nepal's 2083/84 budget doubled customs duty on gold imports from 10% to 20%, while maintaining the existing 2% luxury tax on gold ornaments above NPR 10 lakh unchanged from the prior fiscal year. Separately, in the FY 2082/83 budget, a 13% VAT was proposed on diamonds and certain jewellery-related transactions; Nepal's Gem and Jewellery Association, via FNCCI, formally petitioned to remove this VAT, warning it could raise gold-jewellery prices by up to 19%.

Methodology
How we calculate the price
- We fetch the international spot gold price (XAU/USD) live from xaus.com + gold-api.com, with automatic failover between providers.
- The spot rate is converted into the local currency using live exchange rates from exchangerate-api.com, then scaled by purity (24K, 22K, 18K…) and by weight (gram, tola, ounce, kilogram, baht).
- The result is the pure spot value. Retail counters may add dealer premium, tax and making charges — the number here is the underlying benchmark.
