The municipal charge for
registration fees for buying and selling properties in Nepal varies from one municipality to another municipality, be it urban or rural municipality. If your property is in municipal area and worth below NPR 10,000, you have to pay NPR 400 as registration fee.
Similarly, if your property is worth below NPR 25,000 but above NPR 10,000, you are required to pay NPR 1,000. However, if the property is worth more than NPR 25,000, you are required to pay 4.5% of the total worth of the property. However, the fees of
registration in Nepal is different if the property is in rural municipality; for the property worth below NPR 10,000, you are required to pay NPR 300 as registration fee. If the property is above NPR 10,000 but below NPR 25,000, you are required to pay NPR 500 as registration fee. However, if your property is worth more than NPR 25,000, you are required to pay 2% of the total worth of the property.

Below 10,000 | 400 |
10,000-25,000 | 1000 |
Above 25,000 | 4.5% of total worth |

However, the charge is different for apartments and group housing. For apartments, you are required to pay 1% of the total worth of the property, be it in municipality or rural municipality; you get 50% concession on any unit above 5 storey. If your property is a unit of group housing, you are required to pay 2% of total worth of the property, be it in municipality or rural municipal area. Similarly, if your property is adjacent to Kathmandu, or inside Kathmandu, you are required to pay 5% extra charge for Bagmati Savyata Kosh. The most interesting part is that, if the property is owned by women, 25% concession is available for property in municipal area, and 30% concession is available for property in rural municipality area.
Registration fee for property in Kathmandu = registration charge + 5% of total worth of property (Bagmati Savyata Kosh) Type of property | Registration charge |
Apartments | 1% of total worth (50% off in each unit above 5 storey) |
Building in group housing | 2% of total worth of property |
