How to choose a savings account in Nepal

The right savings account depends on how often you need access and the perks you value. Here's how to pick:

1

Match access to your needs: Normal savings gives flexible daily access; some higher-rate accounts limit withdrawals. Choose for how you'll actually use the money.

2

Compare across all 20 banks: Savings rates differ by bank and change every Nepali month. A quick comparison can lift your return meaningfully.

3

Check the remittance premium: If you receive foreign remittance, remittance savings usually pays the highest rate of any account type.

4

Mind the minimum balance: Many accounts are zero-balance, but others charge a penalty below a threshold. Confirm before opening.

5

Look at special accounts: Women's, senior-citizen, salary and student accounts often add bonus interest, free insurance or locker discounts.

6

Review monthly: Because rates reset each Bikram-Sambat month, it's worth re-checking and switching if a better rate appears.

Types of savings accounts

Nepal's banks offer several savings account types for different savers and goals.

Normal Savings

Flexible everyday access at a base rate (around 2.75%). Interest is calculated daily and usually paid quarterly.

Remittance Savings

For recipients of foreign remittance — typically the highest savings rate, often with zero minimum balance.

Salary Savings

Payroll accounts for salaried staff, frequently zero-balance with bundled insurance and free digital banking.

Senior Citizen

Bonus interest and priority service for eligible senior savers. Minimum age varies by bank (50–60).

Student / Minor

Guardian-operated accounts for children and students, often with low or zero minimum balance.

Recurring Deposit

Deposit a fixed amount monthly for a set term to earn FD-like returns without a lump sum.

Disclaimer

Rates are aggregated from banks' published monthly disclosures and carry an effective date; they can change without notice. Please confirm all rates and terms with the bank before opening an account.
