Hey,

Domicile or residency certificate is the proof that you require to prove your residency in a particul state.

First and very important criteria for having Domicile in West Bengal is that you should have the required documents which can prove that you have stayed in West Bengal for atleast 10 years without any interruption.

Documents that you require to get domicile in West Bengal are:

1.Adress Proof which shows that you have a plot or house in West Bengal for 10 years.

2.Adhar Card with adress of West Bengal mentioned.

3.Your 10th and 12th Marksheet that would show you have studied in West Bengal for 10 years.

Hope this helps.

The criteria to obtain domicile certificate is
