Home Department Attestation Services for Nepal
Home Department attestation is the state-level verification required for personal certificates — birth, marriage, and similar documents — before they can move to MEA attestation and onward to embassy legalization or apostille. It's the personal-document equivalent of HRD attestation for education certificates.

Applying for a visa, higher education, or overseas employment in Nepal? ReliableAttestation provides specialized Home Department Attestation Services for Nepal, ensuring complete compliance with the diplomatic and immigration guidelines of Nepal.
MEA does not attest personal documents directly without state-level verification first. The Home Department in the state where your certificate was issued confirms the document's authenticity, creating the verified foundation that MEA, embassy, and MOFA attestation all build on.
We coordinate submission and collection with the relevant state Home Department office so you don't need to navigate a process that varies from state to state on your own.
