Send Gifts to Nepal from the USA
Shop online from the USA — delivered to your family anywhere in Nepal.
If you live in the United States and can't be home for a birthday, wedding or festival, Near Me lets you shop from wherever you are in the USA and have the order delivered to your family's door in Nepal.
Nepali families are spread across the United States — from Dallas–Fort Worth and New York City to Boston, the Washington DC area, Atlanta, Columbus and Seattle — which means family birthdays, weddings and festivals are often missed by thousands of miles. A thoughtful gift that arrives on the day is the next best thing to being there.
How to send a gift to Nepal from the USA
- Choose the gift. Browse the full shop and add what you want to your cart.
- Enter the Nepal address. At checkout, give your family's name, phone number and delivery address in Nepal — not your address in the USA.
- Pay. Prices are in Nepali rupees (NPR). Pay online at checkout. Choose an online method rather than Cash on Delivery so the recipient pays nothing.
- Near Me dispatches. Orders placed before 2 PM Nepal time on a business day (Sunday–Friday) go out the same day.
- Delivered and tracked. Follow the order in My Orders after signing in.

Calculated live from current time-zone rules, so it stays correct when clocks change.
The USA spans several time zones, so Nepal is roughly half a day ahead of the American mainland and the exact gap changes when US clocks change. Nepal's dispatch cut-off is 2 PM Nepal time on business days (Sunday–Friday); the table above shows what that means on your clock today.
Gift ideas by occasion
Many senders order for Dashain and Tihar (including Bhai Tika), Teej, Holi, the Nepali New Year, birthdays and weddings. Sarees and ethnic wear suit Teej, Dashain and weddings; fashion and electronics are popular for birthdays and Tihar; home & kitchen and beauty items work year-round. For a festival, order a few days early so it arrives in time.
Frequently asked questions — USA to Nepal
Can I send gifts to Nepal from the USA?

How long does delivery take in Nepal?

Does the recipient pay anything on delivery?
Not if you choose an online payment method. Avoid Cash on Delivery for gifts — it asks the recipient to pay when the parcel arrives.

Can I order from my US phone and have it delivered to my parents in Nepal?

Can Near Me ship an order to an address in the USA instead of Nepal?

Who fulfils the order, and can I track it?
Near Me — a Nepal-based, single-vendor store — packs and ships every order itself. You can follow the status in My Orders after signing in, and we send email updates as it moves.
