Nepal Rastra Bank Exchange Rate API
Official Nepal Rastra Bank (Nepal) daily exchange rates as JSON: 22 currencies, history back to 1998. The published NPR rates required for tax, audits, and compliant invoicing.
About Nepal Rastra Bank
Nepal Rastra Bank is Nepal's central bank and publishes the official buying and selling rates for around 22 currencies against the Nepalese rupee each business day. Because the rupee is pegged to the Indian rupee at a fixed 1.60, the INR rate is a constant and the rest are set from it, and these are the rates Nepali customs, tax filings and audited accounts are expected to cite.

Node.js / TypeScript client
A dedicated zero-dependency npm package wraps these endpoints โ nrb-exchange-rate:
npm install nrb-exchange-rate import { getRate } from 'nrb-exchange-rate';
const pair = await getRate('USD', 'NPR', { apiKey: 'art_live_...' });
console.log(pair.rate, pair.rate_date); Zero dependencies, TypeScript types included, and it runs anywhere fetch exists โ Node 18+, Bun, Deno, and edge runtimes.
Why use the official Nepal Rastra Bank rate?
Live market rates move continuously, but tax filings, customs declarations, audits, and statutory accounting in Nepal and beyond typically require the official rate published by Nepal Rastra Bank for a given date โ a fixed, citable number that never changes after publication. This API serves those published tables with the bank's own rate_date on every response; weekends and holidays return the most recent published date, which is the rate compliance rules require you to apply.
Pairs the bank doesn't print directly are resolved from its table (inverse or cross via NPR) and explicitly flagged "derived": true โ so what the bank printed and what was computed are never confused.
Endpoints
GET /api/v1/central-bank/nrb/latestโ latest table or single pair (all plans)GET /api/v1/central-bank/nrb/{YYYY-MM-DD}โ the table for any date (paid plans)GET /api/v1/central-bank/nrb/historyโ time series, up to 5,000 rows (paid plans)GET /api/v1/central-bank/nrb/availabilityโ publication calendar: the dates the bank actually published (all plans)
Full parameter reference in the API documentation. Every request counts toward your plan's monthly quota โ rates change once per business day, so caching a published table locally makes a small quota go far.
