Marriage registration

Raju (Querist) 04 May 2016 This query is : Resolved
Hi Experts,

I am happily married since 21 jan 2014 and now living in kalyan taluka of thane district.my marriage took place in my native place i.e madhya pradesh.

now i want to register my marriage after 2 yrs in the place where i am currently residing i.e. in KALYAN,THANE(MH) and want to attain marriage certificate.

my query: is it possible to register marriage with marriage officer/KDMC(municipal corporation of kalyan) which took place outside jurisdiction of marriage officer ? if yes what are the documents required and procedure will be?

Note: I went to ward office of KDMC as they provide marriage certificates but they said it is not possible to register your marriage with us as your marriage took place outside maharashtra and you do not hold marriage card

I request all experts to help me in this scenario.

Br//

Marriage card along with all the documents as Identity proof and address proof along with photographs are mandatory with the witnesses for registration of Marriage.

Ideally, the marriage should have been registered at the place where it had taken place.
You are seeking a sham exercise, may be for practical reasons. However, every sham exercise have their inherent perils!

Marriage can be registered with the sub-registrar under whose jurisdiction the marriage took place. Alternatively, you can apply to the registrar of the place where either spouse stayed for at least six months before marriage.
