Independent guide, not an official website

Nepal Docs Guide is not affiliated with the Government of Nepal. This guide helps you prepare, but official portals and offices control final rules, fees, forms, and timelines.

Quick answer

Do not immediately pay for another medical test. First open DoFE's official Foreign Job Search service and confirm that the health institution is listed, then match the report's name, passport number, test date and destination to the foreign-employment file. Check the worker's FEIMS account or labour-approval record for the exact missing, rejected or expired status and ask the medical institution to confirm whether it uploaded the result to the correct passport record. Save the report, receipt and any rejection message. Use DoFE's IT/FEIMS or labour-approval contact when a licensed provider says the upload succeeded but the official record still does not appear. Orientation providers are listed separately in the same DoFE directory; an orientation entry is not proof that a medical record is valid, and there is no single public page that verifies both certificates by one number.

Eligibility

  • A worker whose foreign-employment medical result is missing, rejected, expired or not recognized in a Nepal labour-approval workflow
  • A worker who used or plans to use a health institution listed in DoFE's official directory
  • A worker able to compare the report and FEIMS record with the passport used for the job and labour approval
  • A worker or authorized helper seeking safe troubleshooting before repeating a test or payment
  • This guide does not diagnose fitness, interpret laboratory findings, choose destination-country tests or replace medical advice
  • This guide does not claim that an orientation record and medical report share one public certificate-verification route

Required documents checklist

  • The passport used in the foreign-employment and FEIMS file
  • The medical report or available result sheet, with the test date and institution details
  • The medical payment receipt or official transaction evidence
  • The exact FEIMS or labour-approval message showing missing, rejected, expired or unmatched status
  • The job destination, employer, recruitment-agency and pre-permission details when applicable
  • The health institution's legal name and address for comparison with DoFE's official directory
  • Any upload reference, SMS or written confirmation from the institution
  • A separate orientation receipt or certificate only if an orientation record also has a problem; do not mix the two issues
  • A dated note of calls, visits, resubmissions and the names or official channels used

Step-by-step process

  1. Read the exact problem before acting. Missing, rejected, expired, wrong-passport, wrong-destination and medically unfit are different outcomes and need different next steps.
  2. Open DoFE's official Foreign Job Search service and choose the Health Institution directory. Search for the provider's legal name and compare its displayed details with the report and receipt.
  3. If the institution is not found or its identity does not match, do not rely on a logo, social-media advertisement or agent assurance. Ask DoFE whether the provider is currently authorized for the relevant service.
  4. Compare the worker's name and passport number character by character across passport, medical report, visa or permit, contract and FEIMS file. A replaced passport or typing error can separate the upload from the active record.
  5. Check the medical test date, destination and report status. Do not assume a result accepted for one destination, employer or past application remains valid for another.
  6. Sign in to the worker's official FEIMS account through DoFE's service link. Record the exact status or rejection wording; do not share the password or OTP with an agent.
  7. Ask the medical institution, through its official contact, whether it submitted the result to FEIMS and which passport number, test date and destination it used. Request a written correction or reference when a data-entry error occurred.
  8. If the provider confirms a correct upload but FEIMS still does not show it, contact DoFE's IT/FEIMS channel with the passport number, application reference, provider, date and non-sensitive evidence. Send only what the official channel asks for.
  9. If the report has expired or the destination requires a new examination, confirm the current instruction before booking. Use a listed institution and obtain an itemized receipt.
  10. If the status is medically unfit or a clinical finding is disputed, ask the medical institution for the result explanation and the official review or repeat-test route. NepalDocsGuide cannot interpret tests or promise fitness.
  11. Keep orientation separate. DoFE's directory lists Orientation Institutions independently, and the Foreign Employment Board publishes orientation-centre and curriculum information. Verify that provider separately if an orientation record is missing.
  12. Check final labour approval in DoFE's official passport or sticker search before travel. A paper medical report or orientation receipt is not a substitute for final labour approval.
  13. Report suspected forged reports, unauthorized providers, payment fraud or altered FEIMS records through DoFE's official complaint or contact channel, preserving original evidence.
  14. Before departure, save the final labour-approval evidence, medical receipt, report, orientation evidence and contract. Do not hand over original identity documents without a lawful reason and receipt.

Fees and timelines

  • DoFE's public directories confirm linked health and orientation institutions but do not establish one universal medical fee or correction charge for every destination and test package.
  • Confirm the current amount with the listed institution and obtain an official receipt before testing or repeating a test. Never pay a personal account merely to make a FEIMS status change.
  • No reviewed primary source promises one upload or correction time. Provider submission, identity correction, FEIMS support and destination-specific review can take different periods.
  • A repeat test should follow an official medical or destination rule, not an agent's unsupported demand. Ask why the existing result cannot be corrected or used.
  • DoFE's official support contacts may change; use the current contact directory on dofe.gov.np rather than a saved personal number.

Common mistakes

  • Paying for a second test before reading the exact rejection status
  • Using a provider that is not found in DoFE's official health-institution directory
  • Checking only a trading name instead of the provider's legal name and address
  • Missing one digit or letter in the passport number
  • Using an old passport record after replacement without updating the current file
  • Assuming a report for one destination is automatically valid for another
  • Treating a paper report as proof that FEIMS received the upload
  • Sharing FEIMS passwords or OTPs with an agent
  • Confusing an orientation-provider listing with a health-provider authorization
  • Assuming medical and orientation certificates have one combined public verification number
  • Paying cash without a receipt or sending money to a personal account
  • Trying to alter a report, upload or screenshot
  • Ignoring a medically unfit result instead of requesting the provider's official explanation or review route
  • Travelling before final labour approval is visible in the official DoFE search

Independent guide; never alter a medical result

NepalDocsGuide is independent and is not DoFE, FEIMS, a medical institution, an orientation centre or a recruitment agency. Do not edit a report, pay for an unofficial upload, or seek to conceal a clinical result. Use licensed providers and official support.
