Hierarchy and sources of Nepal's national law, showing constitutional supremacy and practical examples.

National law refers to the body of legal rules and principles that govern a specific country or nation. It is derived from the constitution, legislation (acts and ordinances), judicial decisions, and customary practices within a sovereign state. National law applies to all citizens and entities operating within the country’s borders and is enforced by national courts and administrative bodies.

Key characteristics include:

  • Territorial jurisdiction: Applies within the geographical boundaries of the nation.
  • Hierarchy: The constitution is the supreme law, followed by statutes and case laws.
  • Enforcement: Implemented through national judicial and executive systems.

For example, in Nepal, laws such as the Civil Code 2074 and the Labor Act 2075 are part of its national legal framework.
