About the Nepali language.
Nepali is the official language of Nepal and an official language of the Indian state of Sikkim. It is an Indo-Aryan language written in the Devanagari script, the same script used for Hindi.
Nepali documents usually use the Bikram Sambat calendar, which runs roughly 56 to 57 years ahead of the Gregorian calendar. Dates are translated faithfully, and we can add the Gregorian equivalent where required. Nepali is not Hindi. The two share a script and some vocabulary, but they are separate languages. Nepali names can be written in the Latin alphabet in several ways. We follow the spelling in your passport.
Nepali to English is usually personal, civil, academic and employment documents. English to Nepali is usually community and public information content.
Common Nepali documents include birth certificates, marriage certificates, academic transcripts and police clearance certificates. A certified translation is available for these. If an authority asks for a sworn translation, ask us to confirm availability for the language pair.
