Marriage Registration of Foreigner in Nepal: Step-by-Step Guide

Marriage registration for foreigners in Nepal is a legally recognized process under the Muluki Civil Code, 2074. To register, both parties must be mentally sound, at least 20 years old, and free of any existing marriages. Foreign nationals must stay in Nepal for 15 days, submit a no-objection letter, valid passport with visa, and translated legal documents. Applications are submitted to the District Court, followed by residence verification, a consent deed, and certificate issuance. Given the complexity of legal and linguistic requirements, legal representation is strongly recommended. A valid Nepali marriage certificate is essential for immigration, legal status, and international recognition.
