The declaration explicitly states you don't hold domicile status elsewhere. If your family has moved states, make sure you're declaring the state where you actually meet the residence-period requirement, not just where you currently live.
What This Declaration Is For
Many state governments reserve a share of college admission seats, NEET counselling seats, and government job vacancies for residents of that state specifically - often called the "state quota" or "domicile quota." To claim it, you typically need a domicile/residence certificate from your state's revenue department, and this self-declaration is the sworn statement that goes into that application.
What You're Declaring
| Point | What It Means |
|---|---|
| Continuous residence period | Commonly 10-15 years, but the exact figure and what counts as "continuous" varies by state - check your specific state's rule |
| No dual domicile | You confirm you don't hold, and haven't claimed, domicile status in any other state |
| Purpose | State-quota college admission, NEET counselling, or a government job vacancy reserved for state residents |

This is common for anyone living in a family home or a property not in their own name. Most Tehsildar offices accept alternative continuous-residence proof - school/college records from that state, a ration card, voter ID with the local address, or a parent's utility bill alongside the declaration - rather than insisting on a bill specifically in the applicant's own name. Check what your specific office accepts before applying.
Who Attests This, and Where to Submit
This is typically executed on non-judicial stamp paper and signed before a Notary Public, SDM, or Executive Magistrate - or in some states, submitted directly to the Tehsildar's office as part of the certificate application itself. The process differs by state, so check your specific revenue department's current procedure.
What Stamp Paper Value Do You Need?
Commonly ₹50 or ₹100 non-judicial stamp paper, though this varies by state. Confirm the exact value with your notary or the Tehsildar's office before printing.
This is a reference format, not legal advice. The required residence period, accepted proof, and attestation process all vary significantly by state - always confirm the current requirement with your specific state's revenue department before applying.
