Abstract: What procedures are required for marriage registration in 2022? This article introduces the procedures, documents and related fees required for marriage registration. You can go to the marriage registration office of the civil Affairs bureau in your district to handle it.
I. Submitted Documents:
1. My permanent household register and resident identity card (photocopies on site).
2. A signed statement by myself stating that I am unmarried and have no direct blood relationship or collateral blood relationship within three generations with the other party (to be filled out on the spot).
3. The parties involved shall submit three recent 2-inch half-length color group photos without a cap (photos can be taken on the spot, but a certain fee will be charged).
Ii. Procedures for Marriage Registration
Both the man and the woman who wish to register their marriage should jointly present the required documents to the marriage registration authority of the district or county-level civil affairs bureau (or the town people's government) where one of them has a permanent residence to apply.
Both parties shall personally go to the marriage registration authority to submit an application and each fill out one "Declaration of Application for Marriage Registration".
Both parties must personally sign in the "Declarant" column of the "Application for Marriage Registration Declaration" in the presence of the marriage registrar.
4. The marriage registration authority shall review the certificates and statements submitted by both parties. If they meet the conditions for marriage registration, the registration shall be granted.
Iii. Time Limit and Fee Standards for marriage Registration
1. Registration time limit: If all the documents and materials are complete, registration will be made on the spot and a marriage certificate will be issued.
2. Fee standard: 9 yuan per couple for domestic marriage registration.
Premarital medical check-ups cost around 100 yuan, and many regions offer them for free. This is because premarital medical check-ups are highly recommended as they are beneficial for having healthy babies. Although there is no need for a premarital medical check-up certificate when registering for marriage, I personally think that having a premarital medical check-up before registration is a responsible approach for both parties and is still necessary.
How to handle marriage registration procedures? Foreigners handling marriage registration shall present:
(1) My valid passport or other valid international travel document;
(2) A certificate issued by a notary office or competent authority of the country where the applicant is located, which is authenticated by the embassy (consulate) of the People's Republic of China in that country or by the embassy (consulate) of that country in China, or a certificate issued by the embassy (consulate) of the country where the applicant is located in China stating that the applicant is unmarried.
3. Where the parties applying for marriage registration have any of the following circumstances, the marriage registration authority shall not register:
(1) Not reaching the legal age for marriage:
(2) Not voluntarily agreed upon by both parties;
(3) Where one or both parties already have spouses;
(4) Belong to direct blood relatives (Direct blood relatives refer to the vertical blood relationship between the parties, such as parents and children, grandparents and grandchildren.) Or collateral blood relatives within three generations refer to those who, based on their own upward calculation, have the same parents, grandparents or maternal grandparents, such as between siblings, Cousins, uncles and nieces. "
(5) Suffering from diseases that are considered by medical science as unsuitable for marriage (Currently, diseases that are considered by medical science as unsuitable for marriage include severe and extremely severe intellectual disability, where the parties lack the awareness and ability to marry, and severe mental illness, where there are aggressive and harmful behaviors during the onset of the disease).
