Free Nepali tools for dates, calendars, fonts, units and money, built for Nepalis in Nepal and around the world.
What this site is
TheNepal.io Converter is a free set of everyday tools for Nepali dates, fonts, units and money. It exists because people in Nepal and Nepalis abroad keep needing the same few things: today's Bikram Sambat date, a reliable BS and AD conversion, the festival and holiday calendar, a way to fix old Preeti and Kantipur text, and quick land and unit conversions.
Everything is free to use. There is nothing to sign up for.
The tools
Where the information comes from
- Calendar data. Nepali calendar dates are based on the official calendar of the Nepal Panchanga Nirnayak Samiti (NPNS).
- Public holidays. Holiday lists follow the gazette notice of the Ministry of Home Affairs (MoHA).
- Exchange rates. Rates on the currency pages are fetched from a public rates feed when you open the page and are indicative only. The INR to NPR rate uses the fixed peg of 1.60.
- Font converters. The Preeti, Kantipur and Unicode converters use a character-mapping table and run entirely in your browser.
Please double-check anything official. For legal documents, government forms, ceremonies and money transfers, confirm dates and amounts with the official source or your bank. Tithi, sait and festival timings can differ between calendars, and exchange rates change by the minute. See also the disclaimer on thenepal.io.
How the site is funded
The site is supported by advertising (Google AdSense). Ads are the reason the tools can stay free. How ads and your data are handled is explained in the privacy policy.
