Nepal Address Formatter

Choose your district, palika, and ward to get your address laid out for an international form, with the right postal code. Copy the whole address, or one field at a time.

How to write a Nepal address

A Nepal address goes from the most local part to the country, one part per line:

  1. House number, street, or tole, if you have one.
  2. Ward number and palika (local level), for example "Ward No. 1, Kathmandu Metropolitan City".
  3. District and province, followed by the 5-digit postal code.
  4. Nepal.

For ward 1 of Kathmandu Metropolitan City:

Ward No. 1, Kathmandu Metropolitan City Kathmandu District, Bagamati Province 30608 Nepal

Filling in form fields

Postal code, ZIP code, or PIN code
Enter the 5-digit postal code of your palika. In Nepal the postal code, ZIP code, and PIN code are the same number. The 7-digit ward code is your palika code followed by your two-digit ward number. It is more precise, but use it only where a field accepts 7 digits.
City or town
Enter the name of your palika, such as Kathmandu or Pokhara.
State or province
Enter your province, such as Bagamati Province. If the form has a list, choose the closest name: some lists spell a province differently.
Address lines
Put your house number, street, or tole on the first line and your ward and palika on the second. If there is only one address line, put your ward and palika there.
A form asks for the old postal code
Some forms from other countries still use the codes from 1991. The old to new converter shows what we know about an old code.
