DoTM lifts restriction for public vehicles imported before registration ban
Summary
The Department of Transport Management in Nepal has lifted the registration ban for public vehicles imported before May 23, allowing eligible vehicles to be registered with proper documentation.
Key Points
- The Department of Transport Management has allowed registration of public vehicles imported before May 23 despite the earlier ban.
- A letter by Director Maniram Bhusal states only vehicles with letters of credit opened by May 23 and already in Nepal are eligible.
- The previous suspension was due to concerns over air pollution, fuel costs, and traffic congestion.
- Registration will resume fully only after a proper regulatory framework for public transport is introduced.
