Why Have iPhone Prices Gone Up in Nepal?
In the last 30 days, iPhone prices increased by Rs. 9,000 to Rs. 15,000 across all models. Here’s why:
- Government increased import duty on smartphones over $300
- Global chipset manufacturing costs rose in Q1 2026
- NPR weakened slightly against the US dollar
If you’re waiting for prices to drop don’t hold your breath. Industry sources say another small hike is possible in June.
Should You Buy From Nepal or Bring From Abroad?
This is the #1 question we get.
If someone brings you an iPhone from Dubai, US, or India:
- You’ll pay Rs. 10,000 customs duty at Tribhuvan International Airport
- No warranty in Nepal (you’d have to send it back)
- No Nepal charger adapter (adds Rs. 4,500/-)
Buying locally:
- Official 1-2 year warranty
- Official Insurance
- Nepal plug included
- EMI options available
- No customs hassle
Our take: For a difference of less than Rs. 15,000, buy locally. The warranty alone is worth it.
How to Buy iPhone on EMI in Nepal
Yes, you can. Many retailers now offer easy EMI plans:
- Easy payment plans through Credit Card
- Simple paperwork, instant approval
- Easy EMI options with major credit cards
- Flexible tenures – 3, 6, 9, or 12 months
