Understand the numbers
What Nepal's economic profile is telling you
Nepal's economy expanded by 4.4 percent in 2025, with inflation at 2.7 percent and modeled unemployment at 10.5 percent. Remittances remain economically significant, but they are not mixed with merchandise trade, and no goods balance is calculated without a clean matched WTO pair.
Reading the macro data
Nominal GDP measures current-dollar size. Real growth, inflation and unemployment describe different economic conditions and can have different reference years.
Reading the trade data
Merchandise trade covers goods. A balance appears only when exports and imports have a verified matching year and currency basis.
