On September 9, 2019, TAHOTA Nepal Law Firm accomplished the official registration and became the first Chinese law firm branch office in Nepal, as the 18^th affiliated agency of TAHOTA Law Firm around the world.

       Nepal, as an inland mountainous country of South Asia, is located at the southern foothill of Himalayas in the mid of China and India, without any neighboring country. As a significant neighboring country of China, Nepal signed The Cooperation MOU Under “The Belt and Road” Initiative in May, 2017. Under “The Belt and Road” framework, China and India have kept deepening the cooperation in multiple fields and reaching multiple consensuses.

       The establishment of TAHOTA will further strengthen the linkage between the legal services of China and India, promote the developments in the trading and investment between the two countries, and radiate to the South Asian countries along the line of the Belt and Road to some extent. TAHOTA Nepal Law Firm will become a bridge that not only provides high-quality and high-efficiency local legal services for the continuously-“walking-out” Chinese enterprises in time but also integrates and explore the rich professional resources of TAHOTA to extend the door-to-door Chinese legal services for the South Asian enterprises investing and operating in China.

       At present, the director of TAHOTA Nepal Law Firm is Kusum Shretha Saakha- the professor lawyer graduating from Harvard Law School. With multiple Nepal lawyers like Anjan Kumar Dahal-the associate professor of Katmandu Law School joining, the law firm also has hired Kiran Saakha as the firm counselor, which has been rewarded by Nepal Industry and Commerce Trading Department as Business Personage, assigned as the chairman of Nepal American Chamber of Commerce and Industry and the chairman of Nepal South Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry. The main business fields of TAHOTA Nepal Law Firm include: foreign direct investment, investment & acquisition, corporate governance, private investment management, labor law, marriage and family, litigation & arbitration and so on.
