Lalbandi (Nepali: लालबन्दी) is a municipality in the Sarlahi district of Madhesh Province, Nepal. It is the largest municipality in Madhesh Province, with its administrative office located in Ward No. 6.

Lalbandi Bazar, situated along the East-West Highway, (also known as the Mahendra Highway), is a significant trading hub within the municipality. Lalbandi shares its borders with Ishwarpur Municipality to the east and south, Haripur Municipality to the west and south, Sindhuli district to the north, and Hariwan to the west. It serves as the primary trading center for the district.

Due to increasing urbanization and growing business activities, this municipality is emerging as a center of attraction in the district and is developing into the largest municipality in the region.

The municipality is collectively striving for prosperity and development under its original slogan: "Clean, beautiful and prosperous city, Pride of Sarlahi District."[2] It is committed to the economic and social upliftment of women, indigenous nationalities, Dalits, and individuals with disabilities within its jurisdiction.

The area is known for tomato production in Nepal. Tomatoes, along with other green vegetables, are important cash crops, along with paddy, wheat, maize and other crops. It is a developing municipality in the Mid Terai region of Nepal. Bhudeo Khadya Udhyog (Hulas Foods[3]), a subsidiary of Hulas Group, is located here and is one of the larger rice, pulse, and flour manufacturing and packaging industries in Nepal.[4]
