The Interim Constitution of Nepal, 2007, guarantees equality of women and men before the law and prohibits discrimination based on sex. Despite this, women in Nepal continue to face various restrictions in relation to their right to acquire, retain and transfer citizenship. Even the Interim Constitution does not recognize a woman’s right to confer citizenship on a spouse of foreign origin as well as children born to them.
