Frequently Asked Questions

What is the VAT threshold in Nepal?+

Rs. 30 lakh annual turnover for service-based businesses, and Rs. 50 lakh for trading/goods businesses. Crossing either makes VAT registration mandatory.

Is PAN registration free?+

Yes, PAN registration itself has no government fee. Our professional service fee covers document preparation and filing.

Can I operate without VAT if I'm under the threshold?+

Yes, but you can also register voluntarily, useful if your clients are VAT-registered businesses that need VAT invoices from you.

What happens if I don't register PAN before trading?+

Operating without PAN is a compliance violation and can attract penalties from the Inland Revenue Department, plus blocks you from opening a business bank account.
