KATHMANDU / DALLAS: A new mobile platform called MeroNEP has launched, providing a dedicated digital space for Nepalis worldwide to connect, share resources and support one another. Released in October 2025 and available on the App Store and Google Play Store, the community‑driven app targets Nepalis living abroad and those preparing to travel or relocate, offering a hub of practical information and local connections.
MeroNEP brings together essential resources for the diaspora, including embassy contacts, visa help centres, travel information, community listings and job opportunities, with particular focus on the needs of students, families and workers living overseas. The developers say the app is designed to help users find rooms, rides, jobs and trusted local services, while enabling them to stay informed about events and exchange immigration and settlement advice with fellow Nepalis.
Key features include a forum for community discussions on housing, transport, employment, immigration and student life; a verified directory of Nepali businesses and professionals; an events calendar for cultural programmes and gatherings; a curated news section focused on Nepali and diaspora stories; and a buy‑and‑sell marketplace for trading goods and services within the community. The app also offers end‑to‑end encrypted private messaging, push notifications, chat support and a help centre to keep users connected and supported.
MeroNEP emphasises user safety and privacy, providing encryption for messages and tools to report, block or delete accounts, while maintaining a politics‑free environment governed by community standards. For businesses and event organisers, the platform offers opportunities to list services, promote events and reach Nepali audiences worldwide, creating both commercial and social channels for the diaspora.
The app is available for immediate download on iPhone and Android devices; users can search “MeroNEP” in app stores or visit MeroNEP.com for download links and further details. Presented as more than a utility, MeroNEP aims to be a digital home where Nepali culture, community and practical support come together to help people feel closer to home wherever they live.
