Why you need it

When you need it

A sworn undertaking by a financial sponsor to provide or guarantee funds — tuition, living costs, travel, insurance and incidental expenses — for a named beneficiary's visa application and stay abroad, together with a declaration of the source of those funds. Broader than a course-specific sponsorship: usable for a student visa, a dependent or accompanying-family visa, or a visitor visa, and commonly filed together with the Study Visa Sponsorship Affidavit and the Relationship Affidavit for Visa as part of a study-visa document set. General-purpose across destination countries. Some consulates prescribe their own affidavit-of-support or proof-of-funds form, which should be used in preference to, or alongside, this one where specified.

What follows is written for Punjab and Chandigarh. It states the position there rather than describing how it varies, so the amounts below are the ones that apply — worth confirming at the sub-registrar’s office, because rates change. If the property is anywhere else in India, none of this is yours.

Stamp duty

Chargeable under Article 4, Schedule I-A (Punjab) — a nominal fixed duty; authorities commonly print Rs 25, though no official table carries a specific affidavit entry — confirm at the counter. Chandigarh applies its own Schedule I figure. Some consulates and visa-processing centres specify their own stamp-paper value or a fixed proforma for a proof-of-funds undertaking in their document checklist — where one is specified, follow it in preference to the general figure. Buy the e-stamp in the sponsor's own name.

Registration

Not registrable — this undertaking creates no right in property, so Section 17 of the Registration Act, 1908 does not apply.

Notarisation

Required — sworn before a Notary Public, an Oath Commissioner, or an Executive Magistrate, with the sponsor appearing in person with photo identification. Because this undertaking is generally relied upon outside India, some consulates additionally require an apostille (India is a party to the Hague Apostille Convention) from the Ministry of External Affairs or an MEA-appointed agency, or consular attestation, on top of notarisation — confirm the destination country's specific requirement.

Witnesses

None required by law; oath and attestation are the relevant formality.
