How to marry Indonesian partner under Special Marriage Act in Bihar?
I want to marry my Indonesian partner in India under the Special Marriage Act, 1954, in Bihar. I am a resident of Gaya but currently working in Saudi Arabia, and she is in Indonesia. We are planning to marry in September. Will I receive a marriage certificate from the court, and will it be available online through the Bihar government portal? My fiancée doesn’t have an NOC from the Indonesian embassy but does have a singlehood certificate from her local office, apostilled by the Department of Human Rights. Will this be accepted? As I am in Saudi and have limited vacation time, can I give the marriage notice now, and then travel later for the ceremony?
Yes, you can marry under the Special Marriage Act in Bihar. A marriage certificate will be issued and may be available online. The singlehood certificate apostilled by Indonesian authorities is usually accepted. You can give notice via a power of attorney in India, but the actual marriage requires both parties to be present.
