Applying for an OCI card or updating OCI records based on your spouse's Indian citizenship or OCI status? Many applicants are asked by VFS or the Indian Consulate to submit a Joint Declaration of Subsistence of Marriage confirming that their marriage is legally valid and ongoing.
 
This professionally drafted template helps couples provide the declaration commonly requested during OCI applications, OCI Miscellaneous Services, passport updates, and spouse-based OCI renewals. The document includes space for both spouses' details, marriage information, signatures, and a formal declaration that the marriage has not been dissolved, annulled, or legally separated.
 
This template is useful for:
✔ OCI applications based on spouse's Indian citizenship or OCI status
✔ OCI Miscellaneous Services updates
✔ Passport particulars updates requiring spouse verification
✔ VFS and Indian Consulate document requests
✔ OCI re-issuance and record corrections
 
 
Important Note:
This template is provided as a general-purpose declaration and may need minor customization depending on the specific requirements of your Indian Consulate, High Commission, Embassy, or VFS center. Always review the latest instructions issued by the authority handling your application.
