What “Undomiciled” Means
In police and court records, the term “undomiciled” means that an individual does not have a fixed or permanent residential address on record at the time of arrest.
It does not necessarily mean the person is chronically homeless, living on the street, or without any shelter. In many cases, the designation is used when a suspect:
- Has no permanent address they can provide
- Is staying temporarily in vehicles, hotels, or with others
- Cannot verify a stable residence for court or release purposes
Law enforcement agencies use the term for administrative and legal classification, particularly when determining arraignment procedures, bail considerations, and court notifications.
