Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to the questions we get asked most about SarkariSewa Portal.
Is SarkariSewa Portal an official government website?
No. We are an independent, privately-run information guide. We are not affiliated with or endorsed by the Government of India or any state government. See our Disclaimer for full details.
Is this portal free to use?
Yes, completely free. We don't charge any fee for information on this site. Be aware that some government services themselves carry official fees — those are paid on the official government portal, never to us.
Can I apply for a service directly on SarkariSewa Portal?
No. We don't accept applications or documents. Every service page links directly to the official government website where you complete and submit your application.
How accurate is the information here?
We compile every page from public official sources and try to keep it current, but government fees, forms and portals do change. Always verify critical details on the linked official website before acting.
A service I need isn't listed yet. What can I do?
We're steadily adding more services and categories. Let us know what's missing via the contact page and we'll prioritise it.
I found a broken link or wrong helpline number. How do I report it?
Please use the contact page and mention the exact page and service name — we'll verify and fix it.
Why do some services link to a state directory instead of an exact application form?
Certain services (like Birth Certificate or Ration Card) are issued by individual state or municipal governments rather than the centre, so the exact portal varies by state. In those cases we link to the relevant national directory — see our State-wise Services page.
Does SarkariSewa Portal have a mobile app?
Not yet — the website itself is fully mobile-responsive and works well on any phone browser.
