When you need it

Your own application for a certificate from the authority that issues one, saying that you are single: never married, divorced, or widowed and not remarried. You sign it alone, and attach the papers the office asks for. Some embassies, foreign employers, marriage registries and agencies want a certificate of single status issued by an office, not just your own sworn word.

Which office issues it, what it is called and which papers it wants depend on where you live and what the certificate is for: a revenue officer, a municipal body or a panchayat office are the usual kinds. This application names the office you choose and says what you want it for, so that the office can see at once what it is being asked to certify. Not the sworn statement itself: the Unmarried Status Affidavit in this library is your own affidavit, and some offices ask for it along with this application. Not for a marriage you are about to enter, which has its own notice, and not for a certificate of a marriage already solemnised.

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

This is an application to an office, not an instrument chargeable with stamp duty. The office may charge a fee; no figure is stated here. Confirm the current fee with the office.

Registration

Not registrable. The certificate the office issues is a certificate, not a registered document.

Notarisation

The application is not notarised. The office may ask for an affidavit of your status with it; that is sworn before a Notary or an Oath Commissioner. Ask what the office wants.

Witnesses

No attesting witness signs the application. The office may ask for named persons to confirm your status.
