State-Wise Tenant Police Verification Portals in India (Official Links)

There is no one website for tenant police verification in India. Every state police has its own so the correct website depends on where the property's located.

This page is a list of websites and rules that are specific to each state. For the step-by-step process the needed papers and how long it takes read our complete guide to police verification for tenants.

Which Portal Should You Use?

The property's location decides the portal, not where the landlord lives. A landlord in Mumbai renting out a flat in Jaipur uses Rajasthan Police's portal. NRI landlords face the same rule, so see our NRI tenant verification guide for the remote workflow.

What Changes From State to State

Five rules differ enough to trip landlords who own property in more than one state.

• Tenant consent: Tamil Nadu asks for the tenant's signed consent. See Coimbatore.
• Separate filings: Tamil Nadu needs one application per property, and Gujarat one per non-family tenant. See Vadodara.
• Extra sign-offs: Chandigarh includes the area beat officer's signature. See Chandigarh.
• Locked requests: Odisha and Assam don't allow edits after submission. Assam also gives a downloadable police report. See Bhubaneswar and Guwahati.
• Mobile apps: UP (UPCOP), Gujarat (Citizen First) and Kerala (Pol-App) offer apps alongside web portals.

Legal Basis in Brief

The duty to report tenants usually comes from state or city police orders, enforced under Section 188 IPC, now Section 223 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023. Because the orders are local, the rules differ by state. Kerala has no dedicated statewide tenant-registration mandate, as our Kochi guide explains.

Managing Rentals in More Than One State

Each state portal needs its own registration, so keep acknowledgment numbers and reports organised per property. Use a separate rent agreement for each tenancy. GoodTenent doesn't file police verification for you. It adds tenant background checks, tenant screening and status tracking on top. Start with tenant verification across India.

FAQs

Is there one central portal for tenant police verification in India?

No. Each state police runs its own portal, so use the one for the state where the property is located.

Which portal should I use in my state?

Use the directory above. For example, Delhi Police's portal in Delhi, Seva Sindhu in Karnataka, and UPCOP in Uttar Pradesh.

Is there a mobile app for tenant verification?

Some states offer one: UPCOP in Uttar Pradesh, Citizen First in Gujarat and Pol-App in Kerala.

Which states need tenant consent or a separate application?

Tamil Nadu requires the tenant's signed consent and one application per property. Gujarat requires a separate registration for each non-family tenant.

Can I edit a tenant verification request after submitting it?

Not in Odisha or Assam, where submitted requests are locked. Check every field before submitting.

I own rentals in two states. Do I need two registrations?

Yes. Each state police has its own portal and account, so register on each one.

Is the process the same across Maharashtra?

Maharashtra has a statewide citizen portal, but the process can differ by city or commissionerate. Check with your local police for details.

Kerala has no dedicated statewide mandate. Some areas use the Certificate of Non-Involvement in Offences through the THUNA portal.
