The Nepal Policy Institute (NPI) emphasizes the chance to strengthen legislation concerning Nepalis living abroad through amendments to the Non-Resident Nepali Act, aiming to better support the diaspora.
The Nepal Policy Institute (NPI) has identified a significant strategic policy opportunity in the proposed amendments to the Non-Resident Nepali Act. This act governs the rights and engagement of Nepali citizens residing outside Nepal. According to NPI, revising the act can enhance the contributions of the overseas Nepali community by addressing legal and economic frameworks that influence remittances and diaspora participation. Official details about the specific amendments have not yet been publicly disclosed. NPI’s commentary follows ongoing discussions in Nepal about optimizing policies to leverage remittance flows, which remain a critical part of the national economy. The institute recommends that policymakers consider comprehensive updates to the act to better integrate non-resident Nepalis into Nepal’s development agenda, reflecting global best practices in diaspora engagement.
