International representation

  • Although Miss Nepal World 2023 Srichchha Pradhan is set to crown her successor this August, 2024. She has not participated in the international pageant Miss World, as it was delayed for nearly about a year back in 2021. Hence, Pradhan will represent Nepal at Miss World 2025 despite having crowned her successor.
  • Miss Earth Nepal 2023 Raina Majgaiya and Miss International Nepal 2023 Prasiddhy Shah have already participated in their respective international pageants. Therefore, their successors are next in the line and will compete in Miss Earth 2024 and Miss International 2024.
  • Ashma KC did not participate in the 73rd Miss World, as the Miss Nepal Organization announced in their congratulatory post that the newly crowned Miss Nepal World 2025 will represent Nepal in the pageant, which was later confirmed by the Miss World Organization.
