Status of Remittances in Nepal” is a comprehensive research report published by the Centre for the Study of Labour and Mobility (CESLAM) in collaboration with The Asia Foundation. This study, conducted from November 2024 to January 2025, explores the current trends, patterns, and impacts of remittances in Nepal.
The report analyzes the volume and flow of remittances sent both into and out of Nepal, detailing the socio-economic profiles of remittance-receiving households. It examines how remittances are used—covering consumption, education, health, and investment behaviors—and evaluates the formal and informal channels through which remittances are transferred.
Additionally, the study investigates the regulatory environment and service providers operating in the remittance market, providing valuable insights for policymakers, researchers, and development practitioners.
