Nepal and its international trade history The Federal Democratic Republic of Nepal has traditionally
maintained a non-aligned policy and enjoys friendly relations with neighbouring countries
Nepal’s most substantive international relations are perhaps with international economic institutions, such as the Asian Development Bank, the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank, and the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation, a multilateral economic development association
In the 1950s, over 90 precent of its foreign trade was conducted with India
Most of Nepal's basic consumer goods were imported from India, and most of its agricultural exports went to India.
Nepal and its international trade history The March 1989 impasse in negotiations for trade and transit
treaties with India seriously damaged Nepal's economy. The transit treaty had allowed goods from third countries
entering at Calcutta to pass through to Nepal and exempted them from customs and transit duties.
The treaty allowed trade to transit at twenty-one border points, and primary commodities were essentially duty-free in both directions
The dispute was not solved until June 1990 when Kathmandu and New Delhi agreed to restore economic relations to the status quo ante of April 1, 1987.
Trade with India decreased from more than 70 percent in 1975 to about 27 percent of total trade in 1989.
