Last updated: 2 November 2026 – contact details for the UAE and Qatar checked against each mission’s official website.
Many Nepalis in the Gulf call the embassy the “MBC” (एम्बेसी) – and that is exactly what thousands of people type into Google: “Nepal MBC Qatar”, “Nepal MBC Dubai”, “Nepal MBC Jeddah”. This page brings together the official contacts for the Nepal embassies and consulates in the UAE, Qatar and Saudi Arabia, which MBC to contact for what, and tips to get your work done the first time.

What Does “MBC” Mean?
“MBC” is simply how many people say and write “embassy” in everyday Nepali conversation. When someone says “MBC ma passport renew garna janu paryo”, they mean the Embassy of Nepal or, in Dubai and Jeddah, the Consulate General of Nepal. Both are official Government of Nepal offices under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

What Can the Nepal MBC Help You With?
- Passport services – renewal and replacement of lost or damaged passports
- Travel documents – emergency travel documents if you cannot travel on your passport
- Document attestation – certificates, police reports, power of attorney and other documents
- Labour and worker support – demand letter attestation, complaints and grievances, help in disputes with employers
- Emergencies – accidents, legal problems, deaths and repatriation of remains, and compensation matters
- Visas to Nepal – for foreign nationals travelling to Nepal
Services and procedures can differ slightly between missions, so check the notices on each mission’s website or Facebook page before you go.
Tips Before You Contact or Visit the MBC
- Use the right channel. Many WhatsApp numbers are for text messages only – send a clear message with your name, passport number and what you need instead of calling.
- Use the right email. Labour and worker issues often have a separate email (for example in Abu Dhabi and Doha).
- Check notices first. Missions close for Dashain, Tihar and public holidays, and post passport collection lists online.
- Bring originals and copies. Passport, residence visa or ID, photos and any supporting documents.
- Never pay middlemen for “fast” service that the MBC provides directly. Official fees are paid to the mission.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is “MBC” the same as the embassy?
Yes. “MBC” is a common everyday way of saying “embassy”. Officially it is the Embassy of Nepal (Abu Dhabi, Doha, Riyadh) or the Consulate General of Nepal (Dubai, Jeddah).
Is the Dubai consulate the same as the embassy in Abu Dhabi?
No. Both are official Nepal government missions in the UAE. The embassy is in Abu Dhabi; the consulate general in Dubai provides consular services such as passports and attestation closer to people living in Dubai and the northern emirates.
Can the MBC help if my employer is not paying my salary?
Yes – contact the labour or employment section of your nearest mission (for example support.abudhabi@mofa.gov.np in the UAE or labour.doha@mofa.gov.np in Qatar, or the Dubai consulate’s worker grievance WhatsApp line). Keep copies of your contract, salary records and messages.
Where can I find Nepal embassies in other countries?
See our Nepalese embassies worldwide directory.
