In addition, civil registration authorities are also responsible for registration of in-country migration. The Birth, Death and Other Personal Events (Registration) Act was enacted in 1977 and subsequently amended in 1980, 1991, and 2006. It defined five vital events and made the registration provisions more legally binding. The Act’s registration provisions in the districts came into force in a phased manner that took almost 15 years to cover the whole geographic region. Marriage registration is regulated in greater detail in the Marriage Registration Act from 1971, which was amended in 2018. Duties and responsibilities of registration stakeholders are further elaborated in directions to the local registrar from 2010 and in the Local Government Operation Act, 2074 (2017).20" <ref>Global Affairs Canada and International Development Research Centre, Centre of Excellence for CVRS Systems, [https://crvssystems.ca/country-profile/nepal#footnote20_gzz34x0 Nepal], (accessed 12 August 2022).</ref> Nepal does not have a national repository for vital statistics of any kind.
