Understanding Vehicle Tax in Nepal

Vehicle road tax in Nepal (सवारी साधन कर) is an annual statutory tax collected by provincial governments through the Ministry of Physical Infrastructure and Transport (Yatayat Bebastha Karyalaya). Road tax rates vary depending on vehicle category (Two-Wheeler, Car/Jeep/Van, Commercial, Electric Vehicle) and engine displacement (CC) or electric motor power (kW).
