Current local time in Nepal
One time zone, 46 cities listed
Nepal keeps a single time zone, Asia/Kathmandu: Nepal Time (NPT, UTC+5:45) all year, with no daylight saving.
Every clock below is computed in your browser from the IANA time zone database, so the offsets reflect the daylight-saving rules in force today rather than a value written down once and left to rot.
