The Kathmandu Post is a major daily newspaper published in Nepal. Founded in February 1993 by Shyam Goenka,[3] it is one of the largest English-language newspapers in the country.[4][5] The newspaper is published by Kantipur Publications, the publishers of Nepal's largest selling newspaper, the Nepali-language Kantipur.[6] Post is a member of the Asia News Network, an alliance of nineteen Asian newspapers.[7] The Kathmandu Post is Nepal's first privately owned English broadsheet daily, and is Nepal's largest selling English language newspaper, with a daily circulation of 95,000 copies.

The Post's first five pages are primarily dedicated to national news. Each day, the last page offers a variety of features, including explainers, interviews, auto reviews, and restaurant reviews and destinations. During the weekdays, the newspaper also features culture & arts pages, which cover national and international news on society, life and style, fashion and technology. On the weekends, the Post focuses on long-form journalism, satire and creative non-fiction articles.[8]

Since 2018, under the editorship of Anup Kaphle,[9] the Post focused on longer investigative pieces,[10] analyses and explainers, making those the core of its daily reporting. Kaphle resigned in February 2020 and was replaced as editor by Sanjeev Satgainya.[11] Biswas Baral, former editor of The Annapurna Express, was appointed editor in September 2022 after Satgainya resigned.[12] Satgainya and Baral reversed many of the changes that Kaphle had made, turning the paper back to its previous focus on op-ed and political reporting.
