Bonafide Certificate Format
Fill a sample or blank bonafide certificate format for a student or an employee, then print or download a PDF in your browser.
What a Bonafide Certificate Format Is
A bonafide certificate format says that a named person is a genuine student of a school or college, or a genuine employee of a company, and states why the certificate is being issued. People are often asked for one for a passport, a bank account, or a scholarship. This page opens with a filled student example, a blank certificate, and an employee example.
The school, college, or employer issues the real certificate on its letterhead, with a signature and seal. This page only prepares the wording in your browser. It does not verify enrolment or employment, and it does not upload what you type. The sample names are fictional.
How to Fill the Bonafide Certificate
- Load the student example, the employee example, or start blank.
- Choose Student or Employee. The form shows class and roll number for a student, and designation and joining date for an employee.
- Enter the institution or company, the signatory, and the person the certificate is about.
- Write the purpose in plain language, such as a passport application.
- Print or download the PDF, then have the authorised person sign it on official letterhead.
Student and Employee Wording
A student certificate names the parent or guardian, the class or course, the roll number, and the academic year. An employee certificate names the staff ID, the designation, and the date the person joined. The purpose line is the same idea in both: the certificate is issued because the person asked for it for a stated reason.
If you need time away from work, that is a leave letter format, not a bonafide certificate. A notice that you are leaving a job belongs on the resignation letter format.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will a passport office accept this bonafide certificate download?
Not by itself. Use the wording as a draft. The school or employer must issue the certificate on its letterhead with the signature and seal they require.
Can I make an employee bonafide certificate?
Yes. Load the employee example, or set Certificate for to Employee. The text then certifies employment, designation, and the joining date instead of a class and roll number.
What should I write as the purpose?
Write the request you were given, such as a passport application, a bank account, or a scholarship form. Keep it short.
Where is the certificate saved?
Only in this browser tab until you print, copy, or download it. Closing the tab clears the form.
Does the seal on the preview make it official?
No. The word Seal marks where the institution usually stamps the paper. This site does not issue certificates.
