306 Nepalis have been deported from the United States in the 10 months since President Donald Trump began his second term. 306 Nepalis who were illegally residing in the United States were deported during the 10-month period from January to October 2025, since Trump began his second term.
The number of Nepalis being deported has increased as the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has intensified its crackdown on illegal immigrants in the US.
The US has deported citizens of many countries as President Trump has directed the strict implementation of the policy of controlling and deporting illegal immigrants. Among the deportees are 260 men and 46 women. They were handed over to the Immigration Department at Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu via a chartered flight from the US via India and Qatar in the presence of ICE representatives.
The statistics show that 6 Nepalis were deported from the US in January, 18 in February, 32 in March, 26 in April, 58 in May, 42 in June, 17 in July, 16 in August, 53 in September and 38 in October.
According to ICE statistics, 306 out of 1,365 Nepalis on the list for deportation in the first phase have been sent to Nepal. According to statistics, 389 Nepalis were deported from the US in the six-year period from 2019 to 2024. According to ICE statistics, 162 were deported in 2019, 97 in 2020, 23 in 2021, 28 in 2022, 22 in 2023, and 57 in 2024.
It is claimed that 2 million illegal immigrants, including Nepalis, have been deported from the US in the past 10 months. The US immigration agency, Homeland Security, claims that 1.6 million have left the US voluntarily and 400,000 have been detained and deported.
Homeland Security Secretary Christy Noem, in a statement, said that the number of people leaving the US voluntarily has increased due to the plans put forward by the Trump administration and the activities of ICE.
The number of illegal immigrants in the United States, which had reached 15.8 million (15.8 million) by January 2025, has dropped by 2 million in 200 days, or seven months, to 13.8 million, according to data released by Homeland Security.
Secretary of Homeland Security Noem claims that the number of illegal immigrants, which has been increasing continuously for 4 years, has been reduced in 10 months. The largest number of illegal immigrants are from Mexico, El Salvador, India, Guatemala, Honduras, China, Dominican Republic, Venezuela, Brazil and Colombia.
Along with the deportation of illegal immigrants, ICE has also arrested the businesses that employed them. According to ICE, a fine of US$1 million was collected from the arrested businesses.
‘The number of arrests and deportations of those illegally staying in the United States will continue to increase. This work will continue with great intensity,’ Noem said, ‘ICE’s efforts should now be focused on arrests and deportations from the interior of the country. That is also reflected in the numbers.’
The Trump administration has ordered the US Border and Customs Patrol (CBP), which is responsible for border security, to study the situation and deal with those who try to cross the border illegally to enter the United States, arrest and detain them, immediately take legal action and deport them. Homeland Security claims that the number of illegal immigrants trying to enter the country has decreased by 98 percent in 10 months.
