Embassy of Nepal — Attraction in Abu Dhabi

I am writing to share my recent experience during a visit to our embassy in Abu Dhabi, which, unfortunately, was very disappointing. I went there to have my documents attested and, although I fully understand and respect the procedures in place, the treatment of visitors particularly at the door and reception desk was extremely unwelcoming.

While I personally knew what I needed to do and whom I needed to meet, many of the other visitors were visibly confused, anxious, and unsure of how to proceed. This seemed to stem largely from the rude and dismissive behavior of the front-desk staff. Their communication was limited to a few unclear words, leaving people frustrated and lost, wasting a lot of time and energy.

One issue that stood out to me was that payments were only accepted in cash. I was genuinely surprised and disheartened to learn that, as a Nepalese citizen, our embassy still does not accept card payments in 2025. While I understand there might be limitations, the bigger concern was the unhelpful attitude of the staff. I was told I had to pay 250 AED for my attestation, while the actual charge turned out to be 150 AED. I only had 200 AED with me, so I had to rush out to find an ATM, which was stressful and unnecessary.

When I finally returned with the cash, the correct fee of 150 AED was taken. Experiences like this only highlight the need for greater clarity, transparency, and courtesy in service delivery. When I mentioned the situation to an official in Room No.7, I was told that the staff is overwhelmed, dealing with over 300 people a day. While I understand the pressure, I work in an organization where I manage interactions with over 1,200 people daily and still, we prioritize respectful and professional communication.

My sincere request is that the reception staff be given proper customer service training. Every visitor who comes to the embassy deserves to be treated with dignity and respect. We come for assistance not to be made to feel like a burden.

I genuinely hope this feedback is taken seriously and leads to improvements in the way the embassy engages with...

Feedback on Poor Service and Lack of Guidance at the Nepal Embassy

Dear Sir/Madam,

I recently visited the Nepal Embassy regarding the attestation of a letter. As someone unfamiliar with the process, I had expected some guidance or assistance from the staff. Unfortunately, my experience was disappointing and unnecessarily stressful due to the absence of clear instructions and support.

Even for an educated individual like myself, the process was confusing. I can only imagine how much more difficult it must be for others who may not have the means or knowledge to navigate such procedures on their own.

The embassy staff are entrusted with the responsibility of serving the public, and I believe it is essential that they fulfill this duty with respect, patience, and professionalism. If any staff members are unwilling or unhappy in their roles, it is their choice to seek alternative employment. Public service requires a commitment to supporting and guiding the people who seek assistance.

Unfortunately, the behavior and attitude I encountered were far from what one should expect in such an institution. I left feeling stressed, disappointed, and disrespected.

I sincerely hope the Nepal Embassy will take this feedback seriously and work towards improving both the clarity of its processes and the attitude of its staff.

Thank you for your attention to...
