Now the bank statement of the buyer and the seller has to be submitted compulsorily in buying and selling real estate. The directive issued by the Department of Land Management and Records on Tuesday regarding the prevention of financial investment in money laundering and terrorist activities was made in 2082.
Currently, Nepal is in the gray list of APFATF. Nepal has two years to remove the country from the list. An action plan has also been made for this. According to the same action plan, the department has issued an asset clearance directive regarding real estate transactions.
"During the transaction of real estate purchase and sale, the reporting organization must attach a written proof that the amount equivalent to the transaction has been deposited from the buyer's bank account to the seller's bank account," the directive says.
When dealing with the purchase and sale of real estate, transactions above 10 lakh rupees and up to 50 lakh rupees should be done through the banking system or electronic payment system . But the transaction of more than 50 lakh rupees should be done through electronic payment system directly and through check through good for payment check prepared in the name of the seller .
In the same way, in the case of real estate transactions, if the document of the transaction certified by the local level is submitted, if there is a transaction of more than 10 lakh rupees, the department has asked that the details of the transaction from the buyer's bank account to the seller's bank account through electronic system should be submitted along with the transaction document.
