What is the legal process for an inter-religion marriage in India?
Dear Client, You can get married under the Special Marriage Act, 1954. It is a secular process, regardless of caste or religion. The couple must give a written Notice of Intended Marriage in the prescribed form to the Marriage Officer of the district where at least one of them has resided for a period of not less than thirty days immediately preceding the date on which the notice is given. Documents like proof of age, residence, and a copy of the divorce decree will be required. After filing the form, you will have to wait for 30 days to see if there is any objection to the marriage. If there is none, marriage can take place within three months from the date of the notice of marriage. I hope this answer helps you. For any further queries, please do not hesitate to contact us. Thank you.
