Nepal to Increase India Border Duty-Free Limit in Budget | Big Relief

ictframe.com · 5 days ago

The Nepali government is preparing to increase the customs duty-free limit for goods crossing the Nepal-India border to between Rs 2,000 and Rs 2,500, to be introduced in the upcoming budget. This move follows public backlash and a Supreme Court interim order against the previous Rs 100 limit, which had disrupted daily life for border residents. The new policy aims to balance relief for households with measures against commercial smuggling.
