  The procedures for obtaining a marriage certificate
  (1) Application. Both the man and the woman who wish to get married must present their own household registration certificates and resident identity cards, and sign a statement that they are unmarried and have no direct blood relationship or collateral blood relationship within three generations with the other party. Both parties shall apply for marriage registration at the marriage registration authority of the place where one party's household registration is located. Both the man and the woman must be present when applying for registration. If the person has been divorced, they should also present the divorce certificate. In places where premarital check-ups are conducted, one should also hold a premarital check-up certificate issued by the hospital.
  (II) Review. When the registration authority examines the marriage application of both parties, it may, when necessary, require the parties to provide relevant supporting materials, conduct necessary investigations, or designate items for medical appraisals.
  (3) Registration. After review by the marriage registration authority, if it deems that the conditions for marriage are met, the registration will be granted and a marriage certificate will be issued. If the marriage registration authority refuses to register, it shall issue a written statement explaining the reasons for non-registration.

  4. Three recent 2-inch color photos of the applicant, three 2-inch single-person color photos without a cap, with the color of both photos being uniform. The marriage registration office offers Baolilai snapshot service.
  5. Special certificates for remarried parties (additional certificates from ① to ④ are required) : Divorce certificate (or proof of resolution of marital relationship)(or court mediation statement)(or court divorce judgment). Note: If holding a judgment from a primary court, it is also necessary to bring the proof of the effectiveness of the primary court's judgment.
  6. Special certificates for individuals leaving the country for private purposes (in addition, certificates ① to ④ must be presented) : A marriage certificate authenticated (or notarized) by the Chinese embassy or consulate abroad during their stay abroad.
  7. Special proof for those who have returned to settle abroad for private purposes (in addition, proof from ① to ④ is required). If there is no proof of marital status during the period abroad, a notarized certificate of being unmarried while abroad can be presented.
  Article 6, Paragraph 1 of the Marriage Law stipulates that "direct blood relatives and collateral blood relatives within three generations" are prohibited from marrying. Direct blood relatives refer to those who have a direct blood relationship. That is, to give birth to oneself and the upper and lower blood relatives born to oneself. Collateral blood relatives within three generations refer to three generations of people who are not direct blood relatives from the same blood source as grandparents or maternal grandparents. Direct blood relatives and collateral blood relatives within three generations are not allowed to marry. There is a problem that is not permitted by traditional Chinese ethics and morality. However, medical science has already proved that consanguineous marriage is extremely harmful to the reproduction of the race and the health and development of future generations. So, the law forbids them from getting married.
  Article 6, Paragraph 2 of the Marriage Law stipulates that marriage is prohibited for those who have leprosy that has not been cured or suffer from other diseases that are considered by medical science as unsuitable for marriage. Leprosy is a malignant infectious disease that seriously endangers people's health and lives. If a person with leprosy marries another, it will be transmitted to the other party and passed on to the next generation. Therefore, patients with leprosy who have not been cured are prohibited from getting married. The phrase "suffering from other diseases that are medically considered unsuitable for marriage" here refers to "willow disease", mental illness, idiocy, and other infectious diseases that require isolation and treatment, as well as HIV patients who have emerged in China in recent years. These diseases seriously endanger human health. Therefore, such patients should also be prohibited from getting married.
