Most nonmetal oxides are acidic, but not all. For example, carbon monoxide (CO) is not acidic.
A non metallic oxide reacts with a base to form salt and water and it dissolves in water forming an acid.
So we may conclude that non metallic oxides are acidic in nature.

Usually, non-metallic oxides are acidic in nature. It is because when they are reacted with water it leads to the formation of the acidic solution. For example, when Sulfur dioxide is dissolved in water it leads to the formation of sulfurous acid solution which is acidic in nature.
