If you intend to get married at the Registry of Marriages (ROM), you do not need to invite a Licensed Solemniser. An in-house solemniser will be assigned to officiate the ceremony.
To show proof of your marriage to the relevant authority overseas, you may consider applying for a digital copy of the duplicate marriage certificate and you will receive a digital extract copy via email. The overseas authority may verify the document by scanning the QR code on it.
In the event the overseas authority requires the digital copy to be legalised, you may contact the Singapore Academy of Law (SAL) for assistance. For more information, you may visit SAL's website and click the tab "News & Events" for details on the process and procedures.
If you are not able to legalise your marriage certificate as it has been laminated, you may consider applying for a duplicate/extract of your marriage certificate. Please refer to the relevant information below, on the process to apply for a duplicate/extract.
For marriages registered on or after 15 September 1961
To apply for a duplicate digital copy/extract of a marriage certificate for marriages registered on or after 15 September 1961, you may use 'e-Services' on the Our Marriage Journey website (e-Services > Civil marriage – Duplicate of marriage certificate).
Alternatively, you may use the self-help kiosks at the Registry of Marriages located at 7 Canning Rise Singapore 179869, to make the application.
For marriages contracted before 15 September 1961
To apply for a copy of a marriage certificate for marriages contracted before 15 September 1961, you may submit your request via the National Archives of Singapore (NAS) website.
