Dollars and Euros are commonly accepted in Nepal. It is easy to change money into Nepali Rupees, which you will need in rural areas and for paying small things such as meals and tips. You can change money at the airport in Kathmandu, at money changers in the cities and there are also ATM machines in larger cities like Kathmandu and Pokhara.
VISA cards can be used in larger hotels, restaurants, travel agencies, and larger shops, particularly in urban centers such as Kathmandu, Pokhara, and Chitwan.
