A plain-language Nepal guide for people threatened with release of private images, calls, chats or fabricated content who need to seek safety and submit a documented complaint, with evidence, submission, safety, and official-source checks.
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
To seek safety and submit a documented complaint, prepare threat messages and account links, payment demands and recipient details, original media or context kept securely, dates, phone numbers and platform reports, confirm the current process with Nepal Police Cyber Bureau or the responsible police office, complete the official application, and keep the receipt or reference for follow-up.
Eligibility
- People threatened with release of private images, calls, chats or fabricated content
- Applicants who need to seek safety and submit a documented complaint using matching and genuine records
- An authorized representative only when the responsible authority accepts representation
Required documents checklist
- □ Citizenship, passport or guardian identity matching the complainant record
- □ threat messages and account links
- □ payment demands and recipient details
- □ original media or context kept securely
- □ dates, phone numbers and platform reports
- □ Official Cyber Bureau or Nepal Police complaint reference
- □ Bank, wallet, card or platform transaction evidence when money is involved
- □ Any correction, consent, authorization, or supporting record required for your specific case
Step-by-step process
- Confirm that Nepal Police Cyber Bureau or the responsible police office is the correct authority for this request.
- Compare names, dates, addresses, registration numbers, account numbers, and other identifiers across threat messages and account links, payment demands and recipient details, original media or context kept securely, dates, phone numbers and platform reports.
- Do not send more money or media, preserve the threats, secure accounts, contact a trusted person, report the profile and notify police promptly.
- Submit through the official portal or office and pay only through the approved channel.
- Save the application number, receipt, uploaded-file copies, and any written instruction for follow-up.
Fees and timelines
- Do not rely on an old fee screenshot or an agent's estimate. Check the latest official notice, citizen charter, portal, or responsible office before paying.
- Processing time depends on document matching, office workload, inspection, examination, technical review, or approval level. Keep the receipt and follow-up reference.
Common mistakes
- Using an old form, notice, fee, or unofficial link
- Submitting incomplete or mismatched threat messages and account links, payment demands and recipient details, original media or context kept securely, dates, phone numbers and platform reports
- Paying an unofficial person or personal account without an official receipt
- Ignoring the difference between a new application, renewal, correction, duplicate, verification, or transfer
- Paying rarely guarantees deletion and can encourage repeated demands.

After submitting
- Check the spelling and reference number on the acknowledgement or receipt.
- Track the application only through the official portal, SMS, email, or office contact.
- Respond to a deficiency notice with the requested evidence rather than creating a duplicate application.
- Keep the final certificate, licence, approval, account update, or rejection reason with the supporting records.
Avoid document and payment shortcuts
Do not alter certificates, hide mismatches, upload another person's records, share passwords or OTPs, pay an unofficial personal account, or accept a promise of guaranteed approval. Use the official portal and keep payment and submission evidence.
