What is a Naksa Pass?
Naksa Pass is, in reality, a kind of certificate or permission issued by the local government or any of its municipal bodies of Nepal. It issues detailed maps and architectural plans that would go a long way in confirming, under any local regulations or zoning laws, that the land or property conforms to the same.
Look at it as a nod to your property development or property management plans, ensuring everything is up to the mark in legal and urban planning standards.
