Q454. Married in USA, How to get Marriage Registered in India - Registering Marriage at Indian Consulate
Question: Hi I and my husband both are NRI's living in USA since 2000. We got married in USA in 2001 in Dallas court and have paperwork proving it. We feel that we should register our marriage in India as well as we are Indian citizens. How should we go about doing this? Please help. Thanks Sri Raj
Answer: Since your marriage took place in USA, you could contact the Indian consulate in your area of residence and ask about registering your marriage under the Foreign Marriage Act, 1969. For more information on the Foreign Marriage Act, 1969 click HERE
