MEA: We have seen some reports. That is where I leave it

India Reacts on Customs Duty being implemented at the border by Nepal Govt.

We are aware of reports about enforcement by Nepali authorities of a pre-existing provision that outlines collection of customs duty from cross-border travelers in case they carry items purchased in India, worth more than 100 NPR.

We understand that Government of Nepal has taken this step primarily with the intent to curb informal trade and smuggling. We have also seen a statement by a senior official from Nepal that civilians carrying household goods for personal use will not be obstructed.

We remain engaged on the developments.
