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 request recruitment rules and decision records, prepare advertisement number, position and authority, requested marks, criteria, minute or result record, applicant identity when personal record is involved, confirm the current process with the record-holding public authority, National Information Commission or official grievance office, complete the official application, and keep the receipt or reference for follow-up.
Eligibility
- Applicants seeking accessible records about a public recruitment process
- Applicants who need to request recruitment rules and decision records using matching and genuine records
- An authorized representative only when the responsible authority accepts representation
Required documents checklist
- □ Applicant identity and contact appropriate to the information or grievance record
- □ advertisement number
- □ position and authority
- □ requested marks, criteria, minute or result record
- □ applicant identity when personal record is involved
- □ Original RTI, RTIMS, complaint, appeal or grievance reference
- □ Official copying, certification, postage or service receipt when applicable
- □ Any correction, consent, authorization, or supporting record required for your specific case
Step-by-step process
- Confirm that the record-holding public authority, National Information Commission or official grievance office is the correct authority for this request.
- Compare names, dates, addresses, registration numbers, account numbers, and other identifiers across advertisement number, position and authority, requested marks, criteria, minute or result record, applicant identity when personal record is involved.
- Identify the stage and record, request your own score or public selection information, account for privacy of other candidates, and preserve deadlines for separate appeals.
- 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 advertisement number, position and authority, requested marks, criteria, minute or result record, applicant identity when personal record is involved
- Paying an unofficial person or personal account without an official receipt
- Ignoring the difference between a new application, renewal, correction, duplicate, verification, or transfer
- An RTI request does not automatically extend a recruitment objection or court deadline.

After submitting

- 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.
