I know this has been a confusing and often discussed topic but unfortunately I find myself in a situation where I see no clear answers. I live in the US but I am looking to get married in Europe where most countries require a certificate of singlehood. I am originally from Bangalore, and have never married, but also I have not lived in India for virtually my whole life. I have absolutely no idea how to get this document, and it seems like the online services ([for example](https://www.apostilleservice.co.in/single-certificate-affidavit/)) are shady at best. Previous Reddit posts ([1](https://www.reddit.com/r/india/comments/y6817a/struggling_to_find_a_reliable_source_for_single/), [2](https://www.reddit.com/r/LegalAdviceIndia/comments/1hsnm2c/unmarried_certificate/), [3](https://www.reddit.com/r/india/comments/ruhj2/help_i_need_an_official_singlemarital_status/)) have not really clarified what to do if one lives outside the country and do not have the ability to be in India to get these documents/run these errands. I would appreciate any help or ideas on how to get this certificate!

Mate, go to Indian embassy and you can have a form from the embassy declaring(it’s self declaration) called Sovereign declarations.

That will be sufficient.
