The central bank of Nepal, Nepal Rastra Bank, has recently unveiled the annual bank holiday schedule for the period of 2080 BS, which spans from April 14, 2023 to April 12, 2024. This comes in response to the government’s decision to permit essential service-providing institutions, such as banks, to operate on specific public holidays as declared by the government. The notice from NRB outlines the bank holidays during which Nepalese banks will remain closed, while also indicating that partial banking services, including cash transactions, will be available on certain dates marked with an asterisk (*). This information is aimed at providing clarity to the public and businesses regarding the operational status of banks during the designated holidays.
