Bikram Sambat months follow the Sun's movement through the zodiac, so they have 29 to 32 days and change from year to year. Nepal publishes the official month lengths each year.

How Nepal uses it

Government offices, schools, newspapers, citizenship papers and passports in Nepal use BS dates. The weekend is Saturday. Many festivals, such as Dashain and Tihar, follow the lunar calendar instead, so their Gregorian dates move each year. Newar communities also keep Nepal Sambat, a lunar calendar now in the year 1146 NS.
