Girl’s Residence Place: The residential address of the female partner.
-
Place Where the Marriage Was Solemnized: The location where the marriage ceremony took place.

Legal Frameworks for Court Marriage
Legal Light Consulting facilitates court marriages under two key legislations, ensuring NRIs meet all legal requirements:
1. Hindu Marriage Act, 1955
The Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 applies to individuals practicing Hinduism, including Sikhs, Jains, and Buddhists, as well as permanent residents in India who are not Muslims, Jews, Christians, or Parsis by religion.
This Act is ideal for NRIs seeking to register a marriage within the same religious community.
2. Special Marriage Act, 1954
The Special Marriage Act, 1954 governs inter-caste and inter-religion marriages, applying to couples of any religion, including Hindus, Muslims, Christians, Sikhs, Jains, and Buddhists.
It is particularly relevant for NRIs, as it extends to Indian nationals living abroad, allowing marriages across different castes or religions.
Conditions for Court Marriage
To ensure a legally valid court marriage, both partners must meet the following conditions:
-
Age Criteria: The male partner must be at least 21 years old, and the female partner must be at least 18 years old.
-
Non-Prohibited Relationships: The partners must not be within prohibited degrees of relationship as defined by their religion or customs.
-
No Active Relationships: Both partners must not have a prior active marriage. If previously married, a Divorce Decree (for divorcees) or a Death Certificate (for widows/widowers) is required to confirm the dissolution of the prior relationship.
Required Documents for NRI Court Marriage
Legal Light Consulting ensures that all documentation is prepared accurately to meet the requirements of the Hindu Marriage Act or Special Marriage Act. The required documents include:
-
Affidavit: Attested by a Magistrate, SDM, or Notary Public with Register Entry Number.
-
Age Proof: One of the following: Passport, Driving License, or Matriculation Certificate.
-
Residence Proof: One of the following: Voter ID, Driving License, Aadhar Card, or Passport.
-
Photographs: Seven passport-size photos each for the bride and groom.
-
Witnesses: Two or three witnesses with PAN Card, Aadhar Card or Driving License, and two passport-size photos each.
-
For NRIs (Other Country Marriages): A No Impediment Certificate (NOC) from the concerned embassy and a valid visa.
-
For Divorcees: A certified copy of the Decree of Divorce granted by the court.
-
For Widows/Widowers: A Death Certificate of the deceased spouse.
Our team assists NRIs in compiling and verifying these documents, ensuring a smooth registration process.
