Security Services in Nepal

High-end retail and corporate activity in Nepal is concentrated mainly in the Kathmandu Valley, where Durbar Marg, Thamel, New Baneshwor and Pulchowk in Lalitpur are the main business areas. Lakeside in Pokhara is the main center for tourism and hospitality businesses.

Security Considerations in Nepal

In Kathmandu, embassies, offices of international organizations, hotels and branded stores sit close together in a limited area, so these posts need to emphasize access control, visitor management and professional presentation. Traffic in the valley affects the timing of shift changes and supervisor inspections. The working language is Nepali, and officers who speak English are needed at hotel, corporate and tourist-facing posts.

Crowds increase in shops and malls during Dashain and Tihar and the autumn tourist season, and spring is also a busy tourist period. The monsoon from June to September can affect road transport and exterior posts. Because Nepal lies in an area of seismic risk, coverage plans should include clear emergency evacuation procedures, relief officers and seasonal additional staffing.
