Residence Certificate Application Form in Tamil Nadu

Residence certificate is an official statement provided to the citizen by the state government confirming the residence of the applicant. A Domicile/Residence Certificate is generally issued to prove that the person bearing the Certificate is a Domicile/Resident of the State/UT by which the Certificate is being issued. Domicile Certificate can be made only in one State/UT. Obtaining Domicile Certificate from more than one State/UT is an offense. This Certificate is required as proof of residence to avail Domicile/Resident Quotas in educational institutions and in the Government Service, as also in case of jobs where local residents are preferred.
