The government agrees that you are free and eligible for a wedding is the only state certificate. Many countries now require a unique certificate of marriage status. In the case of a marriage involving nationality, this certificate is a must. In this case, the bride and groom certificates are required from their respective countries so that the marriage is valid. Persons who are widowed or divorced may request a status certificate if the requested documents are submitted. In such cases, divorce sheets or death certificates of the deceased spouse are required.
