As far as I know The Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nepal (ICAN) - http://www.ican.org.np/ is the only professional body for accountants in Nepal. If you are referring to the recognition by this body, then you will not be eligible as they only recognize CA's from foreign coutries including US. So I don't know where your US CPA will stand as far as getting a formal recognition is concerned. That said, it should not stop you from getting jobs in Nepal. Obviously, it's more about how you sell your skills, exepriences and designation to the potential employers. Considering there are a few multinationals in Nepal with interanlation financial reporting obligations, I wouldn't think you would face much problem getting a job.
