domiciled

Officially living somewhere

Domiciled means officially residing in a particular place.

The term appears in legal and administrative contexts where formal residence matters—for taxes, voting, or jurisdiction: The company is domiciled in Delaware.

A person domiciled somewhere has established that place as their permanent home, regardless of where they actually spend their time.
