and the most vital document of a marriage. In 2006, the Supreme Court made it compulsory to register the marriage for the women protection.
  • For Marriage Registration under Hindu Act: You can apply at office of the Sub-Divisional Magistrate in whose jurisdiction the husband or wife resides on any working day.
  • Fill the Application form duly signed by both husband and wife.
  • Verification of all the documents is carried out on the date of application and a day is fixed for the appointment and communicated to the parties for registration.
  • On the said day, both parties, alongwith a Gazetted Officer who attended their marriage, need to be present before the ADM. The Certificate is issued on the same day.

Documents Required :-

Witness

Any person who has attended the wedding of the couple can be a witness and must have a PAN Card and a Proof of Residence.

‘Tatkal’ Marriage Certificate

In April 2014, the Revenue Department of Delhi government introduced a ‘tatkal’ service ensuring a single-day authorization of the marriage under which the registration process will be undertaken on priority. The service, which became operational on April 22, 2014 enables citizens to register their nuptials and get a certificate issued within 24 hours on payment of Rs. 10,000 as a fee.

Benefits of Marriage Certificate

  • If you are applying for a passport or opening a bank account after the wedding, then Marriage Certificate is required.
  • Extremely helpful in obtaining visas for both husband and wife.
  • As the foreign embassies in India as well as in countries outside India, do not recognize traditional marriages, the Marriage Certificate is mandatory for the couple to travel abroad using a spouse visa.
  • Enables a spouse in claiming life insurance return or bank deposits in case of demise of the Insurer or depositor without any nominee.


Fees

Rs 100/- in case of Hindu Marriage Act
Rs 150/- in case of Special Marriage Act

Deposit the fees with the cashier of the District and attach the receipt with the application form.
