A Single Status Certificate in India is an important document for people planning to get married abroad. It confirms that a person is currently unmarried and legally eligible for marriage. Many foreign countries ask for this certificate during marriage registration, visa applications, or immigration procedures.
To get a Single Status Certificate in India, you first need to prepare basic documents such as your passport copy, Aadhaar card, address proof, birth certificate, and passport-size photographs. In some cases, an affidavit declaring your marital status may also be required. The application is usually submitted to the local authority, Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM), or court, depending on the state process.
After the certificate is issued, many countries require further legalization through a single status certificate apostille or embassy attestation process. Apostille verifies the authenticity of the document for international use in Hague Convention countries. The process generally includes notarization, SDM/Home Department verification, and MEA apostille.
