Kathmandu Time Now — Timezone & UTC Offset
Kathmandu keeps Nepal Time — NPT (UTC+5:45) — year-round. Nepal is one of only two countries worldwide using a 45-minute UTC offset, a deliberate distinction from neighbouring India Standard Time (UTC+5:30). This makes Kathmandu one of the most distinctive timezone entries on any world clock.
Nepal does not observe daylight saving time; NPT (UTC+5:45) is Kathmandu's unique, fixed offset.
