Bank Interest Rates in Nepal
Bank Interest Rates in Nepal: Since 1937 the Nepal Bank Limited has started service in Nepal. It is the first commercial bank of Nepal. Nowadays there are more than 27 commercial banks. Which performing services like deposits, loans, remittance, checkbook, credits cards, debit cards, mobile banking, internet banking, shares & insurances.
Which Bank is Paying High Interest Rates in Nepal
The bank interest rates in Nepal are decided by Nepal Rastra Bank. But the commercial banks can increase or decrease the interest rates without exceeding the maximum or minimum rates set by Nepal Rastra Bank.
However, we have pointed both the maximum & minimum interest rates on the savings accounts. And also the maximum interest rate on fixed deposit for personal & institutional accounts.
To get the maximum interest rate in many banks you have to choose the special or premium account type that means you have been charged for account opening or maybe some amount will be on hold until you operate the account.
We suggest for maximum interest rate kindly choose those bank which has a high interest rate on the Normal savings account. Generally, the normal savings account is zero balance account which doesn’t require a minimum balance to open a bank account.
The bank interest rates in Nepal are always changing so we update the rates every month, for more information watch the table below. The given values are in percentage.

How To Choose Correct Bank Account Type If I Am A…
Bank Products And Services
Many commercial banks are offering free account opening & some banks are charging for the service. Most of the bank offers free checkbook, debit card, ABBS, mobile & internet banking.
The banks are offering many types of accounts. Such as saving, fixed, current, dmat, salary, FCY known as foreign currency account USD, GBP & EUR.
As well they are serving a variety of loans. Such as personal loan, home loan, vehicle loan, business loan, education loan, gold loan, mortgage loan & property loan.
Each citizen of our country has the right to open a bank account. Even Nepalese citizens residing in a foreign nation can open online bank accounts in Nepal without appearing in the bank.
As well the foreign citizen or NRN non-residential Nepalese can also open a bank account in Nepal. For foreign citizens, they must be residing, earning, or trading in this country. For NRN they need an NRN ID card.
To open a bank account, you need a photograph, identity proof & address proof which is compulsory. Maybe the bank will demand other relevant documents.
You can visit the bank physically or Nowadays many banks have the facility to open an online bank account. Just you have to fill the online form & submit it on their sites you’ll get your account number instantly by email or SMS.
The Best Bank By Comparing The Services
Let’s talk about not only the interest rates but, also about the services of the banks. Many banks are paying high interest but their services are so bad. I’m not going to point the bad services bank’s name here. But I am going to tell you the banks having good services in my opinion.
Nepal Investment Bank
To be honest, in terms of service the first name comes in mind is Nepal Investment Bank. There are many instant services where the customer has not to wait for a week or months. Like a password reset of internet banking or mobile banking. Check on demand instantly. Especially the ATM machine works great each time.
Nabil Bank
The second name that comes in my mind is Nabil Bank which services also very good. Especially for debit cards & credit cards, where the bank always offering discounts & cashback to the customer. On many online sites, you get a heavy discount with Nabil bank. Surprisingly, it supports payment on many Nepalese as well on Indian shopping sites too.
NMB Bank
The third one is NMB Bank which has a high interest too. The bank is best for its debit cards which support most of the ATMs of our country without any transaction charges. Now many banks are offering such a transition charge free debit card. But still, the NMB debit card is the best. Even withdrawal in India is also a minimum transaction fee among theses all banks.
SANIMA Bank
The fourth one is Sanima Bank if you are NRN or staying out of country forget those three banks which have been discussed above. Sanima bank started by NRNs & they better know the banking problems while staying out of the country. So Sanima Bank enters the banking industry with solutions. The service offered by Sanima Bank is far better than other banks such as account opening, account types, domestic/international debit cards, domestic/international credit cards, sanima express remittance, loan facilities.

Sir one question more what is the best for depositing money cooperative institution or banks in the concern of interest. I have come to know coperatives are giving 10 percent interest rate for fixed deposit. Sir what is the truth behind it . I can’t understand
Gautam jee, both commercial bank and cooperative bank are good but in terms of trustworthy, stability, usability and long term investment commercial bank is far better than cooperative. In term of short time investment, easily access, daily deposits and high interest rate cooperative is better. Cooperative pay more on saving and charge more on debt or loans and fines even they applied compound interest rates.

dear admin,
is it safe to deposit huge amount (2 crore) in finance company? what if finance company cheats or goes bankrupt ? Do we get back our money? does NRB helps to recover the deposited amount from finance company ?
Hi Rabin, If any financial institution goes bankrupted definitely NRB will helps in recovering the full amount even including interest. But if a financial institution cheats you it’s being a little bit difficult to get recovered. So to avoid this situation kindly choose any class A banks. If you are going to choose Development Bank class B or C banks kindly choose the oldest banks or having the biggest capital banks.
Thanks Admin for providing the classified information about interest rate of different banks in Nepal. Apart form interest from bank deposits what else can be a source of passive income for expatriate who want to retire and have a saving of five to ten million Nrs.
Hello BP Sharma jee, taking about apart from the banks, interest, and their products its irrelevant to this platform. But you check this post BEST SECTOR TO INVEST i hope this will help your quarry.
Where is civil bank situated at ktm valley
Hari jee, there are 28 branches of Civil bank in Kathmandu valley kindly check your nearest one with this link.
Dear Admin,
May be this is irrelevant but I am returning to Nepal permanently from USA, after selling all my properties, I have equivalent around 4 cr NPR. If I request for SWIFT payment for all amount from US to my active bank account number in Nepal . Few questions below:
1. How many ways can I get better exchange rate?
2. Is it possible to transfer those large amount at once via SWIFT?
3. Is there any documents to show to the bank that I owe that amount.
4. I would like to keep all 4 cr to the fixed deposit, In which types of FD, and which bank would u recommend me and for how long?
5. What is the highest interest figure and what is the yearly amount can I get with 4cr FD after tax ?
Thanks in advance.
Sincerely,
Nabadit
Thanks a lot, Nabadit jee asking such useful questions on our platform.
According to regulation & restriction of the USA and Nepal, you can’t transfer the whole amount once using any method. Let answer your quarry step by step:
1. You can get a better exchange rate using ThamelRemit, Instarem, and Transferwise.
2. It’s not possible to transfer such a huge amount at once, because banks in the USA and Nepal has it own sending and receiving limits. It applies as well to the remittance companies also.
3. Yes definitely you have to show both the USA and Nepal’s bank the legitimate documents while send and receiving the amount.
4. If you’re remitting your amount USD to NPR currency then FD with civil banK at 8.75% if you are remitting USD to USD at Nepal in (FCY) foreign currency account kindly FD with Laxmi bank 4% interest rate on USD deposit. It’s better for 1 or 2 years because interest rates are always changing.
5.The highest interest rate on FD is 8.75% for NPR bank account 4% on a USD bank account. Annually you’ll get Rs 3325000 after tax deduction on NPR.
कुन बैंक नेपाल मा प्रति दिन को हिसावले intrest जोड छ खाता मा बरू intrest pay 3month मा गर्छ plz kindly Suggest me 365 दिन को हिसावले perday intrest insaving
रजत जी, पहिला टुरिजम बैंकले दिने गर्थ्यो। हाल नेपालको कुनै पनि बैंकले प्रतिदिनका हिसाबले ब्याज जोड्दैन किनकि प्रतिदिनको हिसाबले वार्षिक ब्याजदरमा शून्य दशमलव केही प्रतिशत बढी हुन जान्छ।

Hi Nirajan Pokhrel, for GBP FD accounts interest rates is not been disclosed by many banks they only disclose the FCY (foreign currency account) interest rates for saving accounts. Actually, FCY FD interest rates is negotiation based so before Fixing the amount talk to the bank representative. Yes, you can open a FCY from the UK kindly go with Sanima bank online account opening. The whole process is explained in this article How To Open A Foreign Currency Account in Nepal.
Hello sir
If we deposit money in fix deposit,Yearly or half yearly interest is more beneficial?
Also what is the biggest interest paid bank in Nepal?
Hi Sot, if you can manage time for visiting a bank kindly fixed deposit for 3 months only. After every three months, you have to fixed the earned interest & amount again. Repeating the process again & again will be more beneficial.
Dear Sir,
Banks offer same rate for fixed deposit starting from 3 months to a year. Can we just open a FD for 3 months, collect money with interest. Again open another FD for other 3 months and close account. Again open another FD with the added interests for 3 months?
Hi Rashmi jee, absolutely you can go with your idea, but it will be more beneficial if you open an FD/SAVING RECURRING DEPOSIT account. Where your earned interest will automatically add to your FD account each month/week/day. Different types of recurring deposit account offered by various banks like Sunrise, Nicasia, Himalayan, Everest, and many more.
Hlw. Sir. I know it’s a different topic. But just wanted to know like if i kept money on fixed deposit of 1000000rs in any one of the bank for 1 yr. But the bank goes failures. Then what will be the options and how much does NRB gives is?
Thanks Shuraj jee asking for this question, actually there is nothing to worry about bankrupt. If something goes wrong, the bank will pay lowest depositor frist then higher depositor. If the bank run out of money then NRB will pay you because the bank assets like loan, investments, property, buildings and the projects are still running. There is no doubt and be assured the bank will pay you the whole amount with the interest.

Hi admin,
Just one question, is there any Americans bank in Nepal that utilizes US routing numbers to receive payment by direct deposit from US?
Thanks in advance
Greetings
Hello, Deepak jee these is no American banks in Nepal but you can direct deposit from the US to Nepal. If I am not wrong you want to send USD from the US & want to receive USD as well in Nepal. There is two way which you can proceed, Frist one is “Sanima INTERNATIONAL REMITTANCE” using swift code in corresponding banks in the US. The second is to use wire transfer services from any banks of the US.
Before proceeding any methods you need FCY Foreign Currency Account in Nepal. If You want to open the FCY account while staying in US kindly follow the link.
Hi , thanks for reply. Actually I am receiving compensation benefits from federal state of US and receiving pay check by post , after i got check it should be cash out but it takes long time to get cash. So I want a bank which uses US bank routing so that they can pay my benefits directly to my account. They dont tranfer via SWIFT . Is there any option sir. Hope you understand my case .thanks
Deepak Jee, depositing FCY cheque in Nepalese banks can take more than 6 weeks because the cheque has been sent back to the origin bank they will verify after you got a deposit to your Nepal’s account. Sorry to inform you, our Nepal banking system does not support US routing numbers.
I Have Budget Of 20 Lakhs,I am Looking For The Best Bank ,Which Can Provide High Interest Rate For Fixed Deposit..Can You Please Suggest Me For Better Interest
Hi Dwoz, if the interest rate is a priority then kindly go with Manjushreefinance or Gurkhasfinance where you’ll get up to 9.75% on FD in two or above two years.
Hi Satish
Thank you very much for your words of wisdom & advice.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
“Higher the deposit than higher the interest”
If I am looking to deposit In excess of 1 crore than what will be the highest rate I am likely to get in A class banks?
Yes, Suman jee you are right but in this pandemic situation FD interest rate is 8.25% the highest you can get is 8.75% in any class A bank. Kindly go with NIC Asia bank under “New premium super chamatkarik fixed deposit”(Diamond) account.
Great content. Can you also do comparison on Class-B banks? Specially for saving accounts. I used to have High-Yield Saving Account with 6.5% interest rate paying me monthly, but due to pandemic they change it to Normal Saving.
Thanks, Reejan jee for your suggestion definitely we will publish a complete article on the comparison between class B banks.
The central bank of Nepal,Nepal Rastra Bank has directed all A class banks to to maintain interest rate not more than 9.25% annually on fixed deposit. However the rate has been slashed to 8.25%-8.75% owing to current COVID -19 pandemic .
Rise in Interest rate is expected after current pandemic .
Namaste,
Whats an average Mortgage interest rate offered by Banks in Nepal.
Also, could you please confirm if I am right to understand that there is only Variable Interest rate offered to Mortgage customers ,never Fixed Interest rate?
Hi P Rai, the average mortgage rate is 8% + additional premium up to 5%. The banks offer both fixed and variable interest rates but there is a trick if your interest payment type is OD (overdraft) which means your loans will renew each year then the mortgage interest rate will be variable. if you choose interest payment type as installment then the mortgage interest will be fixed.
I’ve heard about himalyan bank and siddharth bank proving 11% fd interest. Is it true?
No, it’s not true Ashish jee the interest rate on FD in both banks is 8.25% the maximum you can get 8.75% nowadays in the corona pandemic.
Hi Admin,
Thanks for complete information about rates that banks are offering now.
Although i got additional information from the comment section ahead, i would like to ask if I could invest 250K on fixed Deposit any of bank in nepal, the maximum rate they can offer now( corona crisis) is only 8.75% . How much I will get return as interest each month if i invest it for one year?
My second concern:
May be you can also assume some probability, most of the banks are average profit condition because of corona pandemics. Will the FD rate go down again or rise up? What do you suggest me when will be the best time for investment and in which bank?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards
SM
Hi Sadishma, investing 250K on fd at 8.75% you will get Rs 1822, after tax(5%) deduction Rs 1731 per month. As your second concern, it will be better to invest after lockdown ends the possibility of an increment in interest rate up to 1%. Our suggestion now you can fixed for 90 days to Machhapuchhre Bank & highly recommended open SMART BACHAT KHATA for saving to get all the insurance benefits better than all other banks.
If you still need more interest rates go with Lumbini Bikas Bank 9% interest provided by the bank.

You have to open a new account “SUNRISE RECURRING DEPOSIT” where you can add your earned interest on a weekly or monthly basis to your fixed account. https://www.sunrisebank.com.np/personal-solution/fixed-deposits/sunrise-recurring-deposit
what if we need interest for personal use ? can we tell bank to stop the process and deposit interest in saving account?
Hello R. Chetri, if you keep the amount to FD account the interest will pay to your savings account automatically if its RECURRING DEPOSIT account then you have to talk to a bank representative.

1. Easy internet and mobile banking
2. Enticing interest rates
3. Online purchases like AliExpress, Amazon, & Ebay
4. Convenient ATM services
Mr. Pawan Dangol our suggestion kindly go with SANIMA Bank Ltd. If you are staying in abroad then you can apply for online account opening from here https://eaccount.sanimabank.com/home.

2. Interest rate is high on normal saving account as well on fixed deposit.
3. Using the SANIMA Debit Card (NPR) you can purchase online in Nepal (Daraz, sastodeal, giftmandu etc) & India (Amazon.in, flipkart, Snapdeal etc). If you still want to purchases form international shopping sites like AliExpress, Amazon, & Ebay then you have to apply for SANIMA VISA Dollar Debit Card, VISA Dollar Credit Card or VISA Dollar Travel Card.

Im retired, would like to invest 1 cr in FD, where can I earn 1000k per month. Do suggest which bank provides highest ineterst as well as safe bank.
Mr. Mukunde Ale none banks of Nepal can pay so high-interest rate as you are expecting if you fixed deposit of 1 corer you can’t get 1000k per months, considering to current fixed deposit rate(9.25%) you can get around 77k per months. If you are going to fixed deposit such a big amount kindly talk to the bank manager before fixing I am sure the bank will definitely pay you more than 11% interest rate.
Our suggestion kindly goes with any class A banks such as Nabil Bank Ltd, Himalayan Bank Ltd, Sanima Bank Ltd, NIC ASIA Bank Ltd, Machhapuchhre Bank Ltd. Amoung of these, you can choose NIC ASIA Bank which is safe & also provides high-risk cover insurance facility with the account.
YOU MAY VISIT TO ADBL NEAR BY YOUR LOCATION AND WILL BE PROVIDED 9.75% INTEREST RATE ON MORE THAN 5 LACS DEPOSIT IF PERMISSION GRANTED BY BOD AND MANAGER OF THE PARTICULAR BRANCH.
HURRY UP !!
