Best Prop Trading Firms for Nepali Traders in 2026

47 of the prop firms we track accept Nepali traders. The full list is above, sorted by Trustpilot rating and challenge price.

We match each firm's restricted-countries list against the exact name "Nepal" (case-insensitive), so a firm that restricts only a neighbouring country or a generic regional group does not exclude Nepal. The count does not inherit restrictions placed on India, China or any other South Asian market. On funding, every challenge is priced in US dollars and the Nepalese Rupee is not freely convertible for this kind of payment, so most Nepali traders pay with USDT through Binance P2P, an international card where the bank allows it, or Skrill — local wallets like eSewa and Khalti are not accepted. Nepal also sits on an unusual GMT+5:45 offset, which shifts the major trading sessions slightly compared with the rest of South Asia.

Nepal runs on GMT+5:45 year-round — a 15-minute offset unique to Nepal. The London session opens at 13:45 local time and the New York session at 19:15 local, so the London–New York overlap lands in the Nepali evening.

Yes. Nepal's Inland Revenue Department treats overseas trading income as taxable, generally as business or other income rather than capital gains. The Nepal Rastra Bank restricts foreign-exchange derivatives for retail, so keep full records and confirm the reporting category with a local accountant.

No. Firms verify your registered country against your KYC documents, and a mismatch blocks payouts. Choose one of the 47 firms above that accept Nepali traders instead.
