Kathmandu Expat Community for Kathmandu Expats

Welcome to the Expatriates Kathmandu Community!

Namaste and welcome to our community for Kathmandu expats! Our private network helps you to settle in easily when moving to or living abroad in Kathmandu: Get to know like-minded expatriates in Kathmandu in a casual way, find reliable information and tips about expat life in Nepal and meet fellow expats from Kathmandu’s international community at our first-class InterNations events.

Curious to explore other communities in Asia & Oceania, e.g. our chapter for Singapore Expat? Or you might think of stopping by at our Shanghai Expat community on your next weekend trip.

Make the most of your Kathmandu Expat Life

Nepal's premier cultural and economic hub offers an exciting intercultural experience for expats, starting with cultural highlights, like the large Swayambhu stupa, one of the most sacred Buddhist sites in the country,, the folkloristic festivities on the occasion of Nepal’s Holi, up to getting a taste of traditional dal bhat. The InterNations community helps you as an Kathmandu expat to enjoy your expat stay in Nepal to the fullest. Our members have already come across many of the questions you’ll have when starting your expatriate life in Kathmandu and kindly offer you their assistance, from ʺHow do I best go about getting utilities (water, propane, electricity, phone…) for my new flat?ʺ up to ʺWhat is the expat community in Nepal like? Does the country still attract "dropouts" like in the 1960s and 1970s?ʺ.
