Family Law- Marriage Solemnization & Registration
The marriage registration certificate is an official document which certifies that two people are married in India. Marriages can be registered under the relevant statutes. In 2006, it was made compulsory to register marriages to secure the rights of the spouses. A marriage registration certificate is required when applying for a passport or opening a new bank account with a new surname following a marriage. Solemnization refers to the performance of a formal marriage ceremony; it is a sacred ceremony performed according to religious rituals and personal laws.
