Having a domicile certificate (SKD) really helps you to expedite administrative affairs in other cities. The domicile certificate functions more or less like an ID card, except that it has a time limit or validity period.
In short, a domicile certificate is a document or legal evidence that is used as a substitute for an ID card.
In general, a domicile certificate is in the form of a single sheet of paper and contains information such as population data, residence information, the purpose for which the domicile letter is made, as well as evidence of ratification in the form of a signature ratified by a local official, namely the lurah or village head.
Because this letter is very important and widely used in various bureaucratic and administrative matters, everyone should understand how to make a domicile certificate so as not to experience problems or confusion.
Then, what do you need to pay attention to when making a domicile certificate? Check out the complete information in the following article.
Functions and Benefits of Domicile Certificate
A domicile certificate has several functions and benefits other than as a substitute for an ID card. The other functions are as follows.
1. For work or service purposes outside the city
2. As a condition for applying for educational scholarships
3. To take care of the child's birth certificate
4. As a condition for taking care of legal documents
5. To take care of marriage documents
6. As a school registration requirement

Types and Examples of Domicile Certificates
Domicile certificates (SKD) are divided into four types according to need. The four types include individuals, companies, businesses, and introductions. To make it easier for you to understand, let's look at the explanations and examples below.

3. Business SKD
Similar to SKDP (Corporate Domicile Certificate), this type of letter also functions as a formal document containing information on a business entity standing in a place or area. The difference between the two is the format of writing a letter in which the SKDP has information on the address of the owner, while for SKDU there is generally no.

Difference between Domicile Certificate and Guest Certificate
Quoted from Henry S. Siswodiro in his book entitled The Smart Book of Licensing & Documents, what is meant by a guest certificate is a statement that contains information about someone who is boarding or temporarily staying at someone else's house. This letter is important to make so that the person is not considered an illegal resident.
The way to get this type of letter can be by completing the following requirements.
1. Obtain a cover letter from the local RT and RW
2. Certificate of travel or travel letter from the area of origin
3. A guest certificate obtained from the police or a self-reporting certificate (STMD) for foreign nationals (WNA)
4. Only then can you get a guest certificate at the local village office
While the residence domicile certificate is a letter that contains a person's domicile information and the address of a business entity owned by a person.
Domicile certificates can be said to have a more complex level of importance when compared to guest certificates. This is because the domicile certificate is related to licensing, a person's residence information, NPWP (Taxpayer Identification Number), SIUP (Trade Business Permit), and other permits.
