Persons aged 18 to below 21 years old cannot marry unless their parents or legal guardians give their consent and a licence for the marriage has been granted. 

For couples where one or both of the marrying parties are Singapore Citizens or Permanent Residents and at least one party is aged 18 to below 21 years old, they will be required to attend a Marriage Preparation Programme (Mprep) conducted by an MSF-approved organization. You may view the list of MSF-approved service providers here.

The couple must complete the programme before submitting the marriage application and bring along the certificate of attendance when they come to ROM for their Verification of documents and Declaration (V/D).
