The document discusses the legal environment for business in Nepal. It outlines the main sources of law, which include legislation passed by the legislative body, judicial precedents from court decisions, treaties between nations, and some ordinances and regulations passed by the executive body. Legislation is the primary source of law and is created by elected representatives through a legislative process. Judicial precedents also help develop the law by establishing principles to address legal vacuums. International treaties and agreements further provide sources of law governing international business relations. An understanding of applicable laws is important for businesses to avoid legal non-compliance.
