KATHMANDU, AUGUST 24
A team from the Nepali Embassy in Paris, France, will be traveling to Portugal to provide consular services, including document authentication, for Nepali nationals living and working in the country.
The embassy team is scheduled to arrive in Lisbon on August 29, according to Sudhir Bhattarai, Non-Resident Nepali Ambassador to Portugal and Nepali Ambassador to France.
Ambassador Bhattarai stated that the team is being dispatched in coordination with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in response to recent issues related to document authentication in Portugal.
The team will verify documents such as police character certificates (police reports), birth certificates, proof of kinship, marriage registrations, and other consular services certified by the Department of Consular Services in Kathmandu.
The two-member embassy team will remain in Lisbon for about a week, providing consular services until September 3. The Non-Resident Nepali Association in Portugal is supporting the initiative, coordinating and facilitating with other Nepali organizations active in the country.
It is noteworthy that approximately two weeks ago, a joint team from the Department of Passport in Kathmandu and the Nepali Embassy in France conducted a mobile service camp for passport services in Lisbon, benefiting over 3,800 Nepali nationals.
