Yes, you can marry a U.S. citizen in Kolkata under the Special Marriage Act. The U.S. partner must stay in India for 30 days and submit documents like passport, visa, and a no-objection certificate. You both need to give a 30-day marriage notice at the registrar's office. After that, the marriage will be registered legally. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
