Background and Need of Issuance of  online Domicile in Jammu and Kashmir:


The Centre has defined new domicile rule for Jammu and Kashmir which includes those who have lived in the Union Territory for 15 years. 

    "A person residing in Jammu and Kashmir for at least 15 years will now be eligible to be a domicile of the Union Territory", according to the new rule issued by the Centre.


In the latest gazette notification, Section 3A of the J&K Reorganization (Adaptation of State Laws) Order, 2020, under the J&K Civil Services (Decentralization and Recruitment) Act, has been introduced to define domicile as that who has resided for a period of 15 years in the UT of J&K or has studied for a period of seven years and appeared in class 10th or 12th examination in an educational institution located in the UT of J&K.

Before 5th of August 2019, 35-A of the Constitution (now abrogated) empowered J&K Assembly to define a J&K resident, who alone were eligible to apply for jobs or own immovable property.
Now the definition of Domicile expanded to include children of those 

  • Central Government officials
  • All India Services Officers
  • officials of PSUs and autonomous body of Central Government
  • Public Sector Banks
  • officials of statutory bodies
  • officials of Central Universities and recognized research institutes of Central Government 
who have served in Jammu and Kashmir for a total period of ten years or children on parents who fulfill any of the conditions in sections.

Additionally, persons registered as a migrant by the Relief and Rehabilitation Commissioner (Migrants) in the UT of J&K, will also be included in the definition of Domicile. Children of such residents of J&K as residents outside UT of J&K in connection with their employment or business or other professional or vocational reasons but their parents fulfill any of the conditions provided earlier.
