Overview

What This Service Covers

Nepal does not have one national business licence. This diagnostic service maps a proposed activity to the likely regulator and identifies the approval route before the client commits to a sector-specific application.

What Our Service Includes

  • A practical intake review of the actual products, services, locations, ownership, imports, production and storage involved in the proposed activity.
  • Clear identification of whether Company Darta can support the confirmed route or whether specialist support is needed.
  • Permit scoping, regulator mapping and agreed application coordination within the confirmed service scope.

Who It Is For

  • Promoters with a new, varied or regulated activity who need to establish the right filing order before applying or committing to operations.
  • Business owners who know their intended activity but do not yet know whether a sector permit is required or which authority administers it.

What Is Not Assumed

  • Company Darta does not handle every regulated sector.
  • The assessment can show that a specialist or a different provider is needed.
  • A roadmap does not guarantee a permit or licence.

KEY ROUTE DECISIONS FOR SECTOR-SPECIFIC PERMITS

  • Intended audience: Businesses needing permit triage.
  • Primary authority or route: Sector-dependent regulator.
  • Core route definition: Nepal does not have one national business licence. This diagnostic service maps a proposed activity to the likely regulator and identifies the approval route before the client commits to a sector-specific application.
  • Main dependency: Whether the activity description reveals a product-specific or location-specific requirement after the initial assessment.
Why It Matters

Doing It Yourself vs. Working With Us

Without Professional Help

  • You test whether federal, provincial, local and product-specific requirements apply to the planned location and scale.
  • You determine whether Company Darta, a specialist or a different provider is required for each possible route.
  • You identify the exact activity, research possible regulators and establish the correct filing order yourself.

With Company Darta Nepal

  • You receive a scoped dependency checklist for likely entity, premises, personnel, security or approval requirements.
  • You receive coordination updates for an explicitly confirmed supported route, while the business supplies precise activity and supporting information.
  • You receive an agreed permit roadmap, regulator map and coordination for routes that Company Darta confirms it can support. The relevant authority decides the permit.

Permit-route assessment process

The answer depends on what the business will actually do, where it will operate and how it is structured.

1

Describe the activity Before assessment

Provide clear details of products, services, location, customers, imports, production and storage.

2

Map the regulator Sector-dependent

Identify the likely sector authority and whether the route is federal, provincial or local.

3

Check prerequisites Before submission

Identify likely entity, premises, capital, personnel, security or approval dependencies.

4

Confirm service coverage At assessment

Confirm whether Company Darta can support the identified route or whether specialist support is needed.

5

Move to the right route Route-dependent

Proceed through the relevant service and authority process once the route is confirmed.

  • A regulator map and identified next-step dependencies, including any need for specialist support outside the confirmed scope.
  • A permit roadmap for the agreed assessment scope.

Before You Proceed

  • Confirm whether foreign investment, multiple sites or regulated personnel form part of the plan.
  • Be ready to describe the activity, ownership, location and scale precisely.

What Can Affect Timing

  • Whether the activity description reveals a product-specific or location-specific requirement after the initial assessment.
