Following is the procedure for application for registration in the Bar council. Also, being convicted in a criminal case is no bar for registration in the bar council.
The person who will submit the online form must pay Rs 5800, in form a Demand Draft (DD) in the name of Bar Council of Maharashtra and Goa.
The person who will submit the online form must pay Rs 5450, in form a Demand Draft (DD) in the name of Bar Council of Maharashtra and Goa.
No additional cost apart from the DD to be submitted.
The enrolment form that is purchased from the office costs Rs 300.

If you are filing up the online form, you will be provided with an extra form, ie., the “Membership Form For Maharashtra Advocate Welfare Fund”. Advocates who are enrolling can choose not to fill up the form at this point of time. No such form is given.
In the online form, all pages, except the last two pages, must be printed on green ledger paper only. The last 2 pages of the form, ie, the Advocates Welfare Scheme Rule 40 and Welfare Fund Membership Form need to be printed on a white A4 size paper. The form obtained at the office, has all the forms in the desired manner. So, the chances of error in filling up the form are less.

Documents to be enclosed – A checklist before you submit
• 1 Demand Draft worth Rs 5800 (online form) or Rs 5450 (physical form) in the name of Bar Council of India, payable at Mumbai
• 1 Demand Draft worth Rs 150, in the name of Bar Council of India, payable at Mumbai
• An attested copy of your graduation Certificate (B.Com, BSc, BA) in case of a 3 years LLB course.
• In case, you have not received your LLB certificate on the date of filing the form, you can submit attested copies of both your final year mark-sheets and the final semester pass certificate/provisional certificate issued by the university.
• An attested copy of your Birth Proof (You can submit your School / College Leaving Certificate, Birth Certificate or Passport as birth proof)
