Nepal's Smartest HR Software for Employee & Payroll Management

NepalHRM is built specifically for Nepal's tax system. It auto-calculates income tax, PF, SSF, and CIT, and generates eTDS reports in the exact format required by the IRD. One click on "Reinstall Nepal Defaults" seeds every tax slab and rate automatically, so your first payroll run is accurate from day one.

Absolutely. NepalHRM Free is free forever for teams up to 10: employee directory, leave requests and approvals, and the mobile app, with no card required and no minimum commitment. Attendance, payroll, and the rest of the compliance engine our larger customers run sit on the Essential and Business plans, priced per active employee as you grow.

Yes. NepalHRM works with ZKTeco, Hikvision and Sintech (Realand) devices. Older ZKTeco machines that cannot push connect through the NepalHRM edge agent on your office network. Punches sync into one attendance record per employee on Essential and above, and flow into payroll on Business and Enterprise. Staff at sites with no device clock in by GPS from the mobile app instead. The guide to connecting ZKTeco and Hikvision devices covers push, the edge agent and what happens when the internet drops.

Yes. The entire system runs in both AD and BS calendars. Payroll, leave balances, and reports respect Nepali fiscal months (Magh, Falgun, Chaitra...) so your finance team doesn't have to maintain a parallel calendar in spreadsheets.

Yes. Anyone can switch the NepalHRM web app to नेपाली or English from the account menu, from Settings or on the sign-in screen, on every plan including the free Startup Program. Emails, exports, bank files and statutory filings stay in English.

Yes, once the NGO module is switched on for your organisation, which we do on request. Staff plan each month against their awards, record each day on a plansheet, and certify a monthly timesheet that goes through your approval chain before payroll.

Yes. Switch between every entity from a single login with consolidated reporting. Each company keeps its own payroll, tax setup, and approval workflows, ideal for group structures and holding companies.

Most companies go live in 2-4 weeks, depending on team size and how much data needs to be migrated. Your dedicated onboarding specialist handles employee imports, salary structures, and historical payroll, so you're not figuring it out alone.

All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.2+) and at rest (AES-256). Access is role-based, every change is logged, and daily backups are standard. We treat your payroll data the way a bank would treat its own.

They overlap heavily. "HR software" is the umbrella term for any tool that manages employees. An HRIS (Human Resource Information System) centers on the core employee database: records, leave, and self-service. An HRMS (Human Resource Management System) is broader, adding payroll, attendance, recruitment, and performance. NepalHRM is a full HRMS: everything an HRIS does, plus Nepal-compliant payroll (PF, CIT, SSF, eTDS), biometric attendance, and recruitment on one platform.

For most small businesses in Nepal, the best HR software is one that's free to start, priced in NPR, and IRD-compliant out of the box. NepalHRM is free forever for teams up to 10 (employee directory, leave requests and approvals, and the mobile app), then NPR 60 to 99 per active employee for attendance, payroll and the rest on a paid plan. You get the same Nepal-compliant HRMS as larger companies without the enterprise price tag or a credit card.
