Niwas Praman Patra, Maharashtra
A Domicile Certificate (also called Niwas Praman Patra in Marathi or Residence Certificate) is an official government document that certifies a person as a permanent resident of Maharashtra.
In Maharashtra, the Domicile Certificate is issued by the Tahsildar (Revenue Officer) at the Taluka level, through the MahaOnline / Aaple Sarkar portal. It is a key document required for accessing numerous state government benefits, reservations, and services.
It is distinct from a Ration Card or Voter ID โ those are proof of address, while the Domicile Certificate specifically certifies long-term permanent residency in the state for purposes of reservations and state entitlements.
