US spouse and family visa petitions (IR-1, CR-1, K-1) require certified translations of all supporting documents including the Nepali marriage certificate. Hamro Notary produces USCIS-accepted translations of Nepali civil marriage certificates for clients applying through the US Embassy in Kathmandu or via NVC.
Marriage certificates from different issuing authorities in Nepal (ward offices, district courts, municipality offices) each have their own format. Our translators are familiar with all formats and produce translations that match USCIS expectations — covering marriage date, registration details, witness names, and issuing authority.
We also translate affidavits of marriage recognition and joint household documents that NVC sometimes requests from Nepali petitioners.
