Dear Dominik,
As far as I know, initially there was actually a regulation that while
any user was allowed to view the Nepal films in the Berlin State
Library, copies would only be made available to scholars from Germany,
Austria and Switzerland (and later to all scholars working in these
countries). All other scholars were referred to the Nepalese side at
that time.
Since March 2014, however, there have been new regulations, which can
be downloaded from the DMG website:
https://www.dmg-web.de/page/nepal_en
https://www.dmg-web.de/page/nepal_en/Merkblatt_NGMPP_sc.pdf
Accordingly, "copies/digitised copies" may be made and used for
research purposes, regardless of the nationality or place of work of
the researcher. However, editing of texts based on these microfilms is
only allowed with the permission of the National Archives in Kathmandu
(Nepal).
Best regards,
Roland
