Affidavit Drafting in Kathmandu

Yes. Most affidavits — relationship declarations, name discrepancy affidavits, income affidavits, address declarations, and sponsorship affidavits — are drafted and notarised within 1–2 hours of your visit. We maintain legal templates for all common types, so there is no waiting time for drafting from scratch. Walk-in clients are welcome Sunday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, without a prior appointment for all standard affidavit types.

No. Under Nepali law, a registered Notary Public is fully authorised to draft and notarise affidavits without the involvement of a lawyer or advocate. Hamro Notary handles drafting and notarisation in one step, saving you the cost and time of hiring a separate attorney. We maintain standard legal templates for the most common types — name discrepancy, relationship, single status, sponsorship, and more — completed in one office visit.

Yes. Affidavits notarised by a registered Notary Public in Nepal are accepted by all embassies and immigration departments processing Nepali applicants. This includes the US Embassy (for DS-160, I-130, and relationship declarations), the Indian Embassy, the Australian High Commission (partner and sponsorship visas), IRCC Canada, the UK Visas and Immigration service, and all Gulf-country consulates. We issue affidavits bearing the official Notary Public seal recognised internationally. If additional MoFA attestation is required, we arrange it.

The person making the sworn statement must generally be physically present at the time of notarisation, as the Notary Public must witness the oath and signature in person. However, you can WhatsApp us in advance to have the affidavit drafted and ready before your visit — signing and notarisation then takes only a few minutes on arrival. In cases where the deponent cannot appear due to illness or age, a Power of Attorney may authorise a representative to act on their behalf.

Affidavit fees depend on the type and complexity of the declaration. Simple affidavits — single-status, name discrepancy, and relationship declarations — start from NPR 800–1,000 including drafting and notarisation. Complex affidavits involving property claims, income declarations, or business matters may cost NPR 1,500–3,000. A certified English translation for embassy submission, if required, is charged separately at NPR 1,000–1,500 per page. WhatsApp us your requirement for an exact price before visiting.
