I am from Mauritius. My girlfriend is from Murmah, near Siliguri, West Bengal, India. We want to have a civil wedding or court marriage with a certificate, as we both work on a cruise ship. We would like to have the wedding in India. Can you please provide information about the paperwork, fees, and how much time the process may take? Thank you.
Sir, to perform court marriage you must file a notice under the Special Marriage Act, 1954 and the required documents are proof of age, residence, passport size photograph and an affidavit. After submitting the notice to the Marriage Registrar you must wait 30 days for objections. Once no objections have been raised, the marriage is registered. The process may 30 days, and application fees range from ₹100 to ₹150. It is advised to consult an expert lawyer who will assist you with the further procedure of marriage.
