（1） Widowed remarriage refers to the act of registering a marriage with someone else after one spouse has passed away. According to relevant legal provisions, widowed remarriage requires the submission of the following documents:
1. My permanent household registration book and resident ID card (on-site copy).
2. I have no spouse and no direct blood relationship or collateral blood relationship within three generations with the other party (to be filled out on site).
3. The parties involved shall submit three 2-inch recent half body color photos without a crown (which can be taken on-site, but a certain fee must be paid).

Divorce usually leads to one spouse losing custody. The party who loses custody will lose the right to live with their children. However, the party who loses custody will still have visitation rights and can regularly visit their children at agreed or judged times, and have relatively brief interactions with them. The ownership of custody in divorce can be negotiated by both parties. If the negotiation fails, the court shall make a judgment. The court generally determines the ownership of custody based on the principle of promoting the growth of children, mainly considering the following factors: the education, work, income, age, family environment, and age of the children of both spouses.
The relationship between stepparents and stepchildren is different from that between parents and children in general. They have a relationship of marriage and education, but not a blood relationship. This right and obligation can be relieved. Therefore, it can be inferred that when the biological father and stepmother or the biological mother and stepfather divorce, if both the biological father (mother) and stepmother (father) request to raise the child, the custody belongs to the biological parents. When the biological father and stepmother or the biological mother and stepfather divorce, if the stepparents are unwilling to continue raising their stepchildren who have been raised and educated by them, it shall be deemed that the custody relationship has been terminated, and the child shall still be raised by the biological parents.

If one party is widowed, the marital status automatically disappears and the marriage certificate loses its legal effect. If you want to remarry, you just need to bring your death certificate, as well as the ID cards, household registration books, and a photo of the couple taken by both parties, to the civil affairs department to apply for marriage registration.
