Getting a marriage certificate does not require payment. Provinces, cities, and districts will cease to charge labor fees for marriage registration certificates. The parties who apply for marriage registration in accordance with the law at various marriage registration offices (including those who apply for marriage registration certificates) are all free of charge. This means that the original 9-yuan marriage certificate will officially enter the era of zero yuan. Marriage registration partners can enjoy the "zero fee" policy for marriage registration, and as long as both parties meet the policy, registration and certification are free of charge. When obtaining a marriage certificate, as long as both parties have prepared the relevant documents and meet the marriage requirements, they can go to the Civil Affairs Bureau for free marriage registration and obtain the marriage certificate.
