Court Marriage
Court marriage, also known as civil marriage, is a legal process through which a couple gets married under the laws of the country, without any religious rituals or ceremonies. The procedure for court marriage can vary slightly from one location to another. Since you mentioned Dlhi, I'll provide a general overview of the court marriage process.
To apply for a court marriage in Ghaziabad or any other location, it's important to follow the specific procedures and guidelines set by the local Marriage Registrar's office. Please note that the information I provide is based on the general procedure as of my last update in September 2021, and procedures might have changed since then. Here's a step-by-step guide on how you could typically apply for court marriage in Delhi
Visit the Marriage Registrar's Office: Go to the nearest Marriage Registrar's office in Ghaziabad. You can inquire about the specific documents required and the procedure to be followed. It's a good idea to do this well in advance to gather all the necessary information.
Collect Required Documents: Prepare all the required documents. These documents can include:
Application form for marriage registration (available at the Registrar's office).
Age proof (birth certificate, passport, etc.).
Address proof (ration card, Aadhar card, passport, etc.).
Passport-sized photographs of both parties.
Affidavits declaring marital status, consent for marriage, and other relevant details.
If one of the parties is a divorcee, a copy of the divorce decree.
Notice of Intended Marriage: Submit the application form and all the necessary documents to the Marriage Registrar's office. They will acknowledge the receipt of your documents and give you a date for the issuance of the notice of intended marriage.
Waiting Period and Objections: The notice of intended marriage is typically displayed on the notice board of the Registrar's office for a waiting period of around 1 day. During this time, anyone can raise objections to the marriage if they have valid legal reasons to do so.
Verification and Ceremony: If no objections are raised during the waiting period, the Registrar will schedule a date for the marriage ceremony. The marriage is solemnized in the presence of three witnesses, along with the Registrar. The ceremony is usually simple and straightforward.
Issuance of Marriage Certificate: After the marriage ceremony, a marriage certificate is issued to the couple. This certificate serves as legal proof of your marriage.
