Rupaidiha is a small town in Bahraich district in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, near the India–Nepal border across from Nepalgunj. The Rupaidiha border is a significant trade route, with annual trade worth Rs 8,500 crore between India and Nepal. Exports account for 95 per cent of the trade value, making the facility’s development an important move.

A 2.2 km long feeder route has also been constructed to link the two land ports to National Highway-927.
