Nepal lifts ban on select dairy imports from India

During the IGC meeting in Kathmandu in January, Indian officials had raised concerns over Nepal’s import restrictions on dairy products.

Nepal has lifted a partial ban on the import of certain dairy items, including whey and cheese, from India. The decision follows a bilateral agreement reached during the Nepal-India Inter-Governmental Committee (IGC) meeting on Trade, Transit, and Cooperation to Combat Unauthorised Trade, held in Kathmandu this January.
