Hello,
I would require a bachelor/single certificate from India .I am aware that it has to be done through court and notarized and apostilled if needed abroad but can this affidavit written by parents stating that their son is single . Since I am not in India and would not be able to sign as deponent. And is that acceptable?
Regards
SA

you can get a single status or bachelorhood certificate in India:
Who issues the certificate
A competent court or the Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM) of the applicant's residential area can issue a single status certificate.
What documents are required
To apply for a single status certificate, you'll need to submit the following documents:
An affidavit stating that you are single, with details like your address, identity, and witnesses' names
Proof of address, such as a bank passbook, rental agreement, voter ID, or Aadhar card
Your passport or visa
Your birth certificate, NABC, or school certificate
Your parents' ID proof, such as their voter ID or Aadhar card
Attesting the certificate
After the certificate is issued, it needs to be attested by the following authorities:
Notary public: A notary public notarizes the bachelorhood affidavit
Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM): The SDM verifies the affidavit and counter-attests it to prove its validity
Ministry of External Affairs (MEA): The MEA is the top authority that must attest the certificate
