A bonafide certificate states that a named student, identified by admission/roll number, is genuinely enrolled in a specific class or course during a specific academic year — signed and sealed by the institution's Principal or authorized signatory.

Frequently asked questions
What is a bonafide certificate?
A bonafide certificate is an official document issued by a school or college confirming that a named person is (or was) a genuine, currently enrolled student of that institution. It's commonly required for passport applications, bank account opening, visa applications, scholarships, and other official processes.
What details are usually required on a bonafide certificate?
Student's full name, parent/guardian's name, admission or roll number, class or course, academic year, and often date of birth. Most institutions also state the purpose for which the certificate is being issued, along with the date, place, and the signature of the Principal or authorized signatory.
Is a certificate generated here legally valid?
This tool generates a correctly formatted certificate ready for your institution to review, sign, and stamp — it does not itself grant institutional authority. A bonafide certificate is only valid once it's signed by an authorized signatory (typically the Principal) and carries the institution's official seal.
Can I edit the certificate after generating it?
Yes — every field is editable, and the preview updates instantly as you type. Once it looks right, use the Print / Save as PDF button to get a print-ready copy.
