A foreign marriage can be legally done by getting married according to the laws of the country where the marriage takes place. After that, the marriage can be registered at the Indian Embassy or Consulate under the Foreign Marriage Act, 1969, or later registered in India if one partner is an Indian citizen. Generally, a 30-day notice period is required for registration. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
