Nepal joined the WTO in 2004 as its 147th member. WTO membership provides Nepal with benefits such as predictable market access, transit rights, and a rules-based trade regime. However, Nepal also faces limitations in taking advantage of these benefits due to supply-side constraints like lack of human capital and infrastructure. Nepal faces both tariff and non-tariff barriers in major export markets that reduce the competitiveness of Nepalese exports. While WTO membership provides opportunities, there are also criticisms of its potential negative impacts such as consequences for labor rights, privatization of services, effects on the environment, and escalating inequality.
