Heading to the Himalayas for work or registering a business in Kathmandu? While Nepal’s accession to the Hague Apostille Convention has simplified paperwork for Nepali citizens going abroad, U.S. citizens and businesses often find that a standard Apostille is not enough. Most Nepali government agencies, including the Department of Immigration and the Ministry of Education, still require a formal Embassy Attestation to recognize U.S. documents.
At US Apostille, we manage the specific "Chain of Authentication" required for Nepal. We ensure your diplomas, background checks, and legal contracts are processed through the Embassy of Nepal in Washington, D.C., providing you with 100% legal certainty for your transition to the Kingdom.
Because local authorities in Nepal often prefer the familiar Embassy seal over a federal Apostille, we follow this rigorous 4-step process:
State Level: Notarization and certification from the Secretary of State (where the document originated).
Federal Level: Authentication by the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C.
Consular Level: Final attestation stamp from the Embassy of Nepal.
Local Readiness: Your document is ready for the Department of Consular Services (MOFA) in Kathmandu.
Processing time and fees depend on the destination country.

University Degrees & Transcripts: Crucial for obtaining a non-tourist visa. We ensure your academic records meet the specific standards of the Nepal Ministry of Education.
FBI Background Checks: We provide expedited federal-to-embassy attestation, a mandatory requirement for residency and long-term volunteer permits in Nepal.
Property & Legal Representation: For those managing land or legal affairs in Nepal. Note for 2026: The Embassy now requires the "Executant" to provide a copy of their Citizenship Certificate (Nagarikta) or a valid passport along with the POA. We verify these attachments before submission.
Certificate of Incorporation & Bylaws: Required for registering a foreign-invested company with the Office of the Company Registrar (OCR).
Agency Agreements: Properly legalized for U.S. brands appointing local distributors in Nepal.
Physical Presence vs. Hand-Carry: While the Embassy traditionally requires physical presence for certain affidavits, our authorized courier service can handle most attestations on your behalf, saving you a trip to D.C.
2026 Fee Structure: Attestation fees are typically $50 per personal document and $100 per commercial/legal document. We handle the specific Money Order or Cashier's Check requirements (payable to "Embassy of Nepal") to ensure immediate processing.
The "Yellow Page" Requirement: Many local offices in Nepal require a certified copy of your Identity Proof to be attached to the back of the authenticated document. We ensure your submission package is complete to avoid rejections in Kathmandu.
