nepal ma dollar kati laana paainchha. and kati saatna paainchha ekpatakma. which is the safest way - to carry dollar and cash out in nepal rs over there or do bank transfer or carry tc?

anyone who has past experiences please help.

tapai haru sabaiko swarga ma baas hos

I don't know the dollar limit that you can take with you to Nepal but I do have some experience of using my Bank of America checking card at Nabil Bank. They gave me the Nepal Rastra Bank's selling rate. The only fee that I had to pay was 3% charge from Bank of America. If you use ATM then there will be additional charge of $5 from Bank of America.

Malai exactly chaini taha chaina tara mailae sunae anusar $2000 jatti lana paincha rae. Tara paisa katti cha bhanera katai pani checking bha ko malai taha chaina. Ma nepal janda pani $1000 cash lageko thiyae ani baki paisa chaini money gram bata aafnai nam ma nepal pathai diyae ra nepal gayepachi liyae. Mero experience ma bhannu parda, nepal ma cash tyo pani hundred dollor ko bill haru jati sakincha lanae. Kina bhanae nepal ma money exchange haru lae thulo bill ko chalu rate bhanda badi dincha.

Good luck

It really doesn't matter how much you take.
No body gonna care that!
When u take TC, if you have a bank account in Nepal they may limit the amount you change into Nepali currency every day, but no body cares unless it more some million/billion.

10,000.

shop around thamel for better exchange rate, no need to worry about bank

Try to take less than 10,000 otherwise you have to declare at the airport. I have been watching ABC’s Homeland Security reality show, on the show so many people tried to take out large sum of cash from US but got caught and faced felony. Just be careful dude, small mistakes make you pay big time.

$2000 USD

People residing in Nepal are much more smarter than you in USA or abroad. If you have upgraded you cell phone and want to give somebody, they will not take it because of status quo and will be accepting ipod only. Similarly if you have 10 mega pixel camera , they would not accept it, because they are looking for DSLR only.

yep, and त्यसैले होला, लाटोले एक बल्ड्याङ खाँदा नेपालीले तीन बल्ड्याङ खान्छ रे! 

Think twice before buying a gift.

तेसैले उपहार दिनु अगाडि आफ्नो खल्ती को बिचार  भन्दा पनि उपहार लिनेको STATUS हेरेर मात्रै उपहार किन्नु र दिनु होला । Beware of Made in.  Make sure the gift was  is made in USA.

हो, नेपाली माग्नेलाई खुद्रा पैसा दियो भने , नोट दिनुस यो खुद्रा लगेर कहाँ साटनु भन्ने जबाफ सुन्नु पर्छ।
