The government has decided to end the Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement (DTAA) with Mauritius, following a Cabinet decision on Monday. The agreement, in effect since August 3, 1999, has been formally revoked under Article 29, Sub-clause 1 of its termination provisions. The Inland Revenue Department said the move aligns Nepal’s tax framework with domestic legal changes and evolving global tax standards that require greater transparency and safeguards against misuse. The termination will take effect for Nepal on July 17 of the next fiscal year, 2026/27.
