Domicile rule

What is a domicile rule?

Let us learn more about the domicile certificate. The domicile certificate is a testimony of a person’s permanent residence in a certain region. One can obtain the certificate from the local administration especially the Tehsildar or the revenue department. Every state practices a different set of rules for the domicile certificate. Some states grant the certificate only if an individual is a permanent resident of the state. Nonetheless, some states issue the certificates, after a person has lived in the state for a certain time. In Assam, the certificate is issued to a person who is a permanent resident of the state or who has been living in the state for more than 20-years. The certificate can be obtained from the Assam Taluk Office or Revenue Department. A period of 10-15 days is required for processing the documents and issuing the certificate. The claimant is obliged to pay some value as a part of the processing expense. Some documents that may be needed during the certificate processing as a proof of person’s residence include Adhar/Pan cards, passport photos, address proofs (such as service bills), etc. For the online demand of the certificate, people can get help from the official website. This rule is applicable for 85% of the seats. While the rest of the 15% of seats are reserved for the non-native students of Assam.
