Is Nepal landlocked?
Yes, Nepal is a landlocked country with no sea access. It is bordered by India to the south, east and west, and by the Tibet Autonomous Region of China to the north. Its nearest sea port for trade is Kolkata (Kolkata/Haldia) in India.
Being landlocked shapes Nepal's trade, which is dominated by overland routes through India.
