When should I register my intent to marry?

A couple getting married are required to give notification in person of their intention to marry to a Registrar at least 3 months before the intended date of their marriage. A couple in a civil partnership who wish to marry should contact the Registrar who will guide them through the process. The notification can be given to any Registrar.

If either of you are living abroad or are unable to attend a Registration Office due to serious illness, you should contact a Registrar to get permission to make your 3-month notification by post. If permission is granted, the Registrar will send you a form which you must complete and return.

You will still have to make arrangements to meet the Registrar at least 5 days before you get married in order sign the declaration form. This is required before a Marriage Registration Form can be issued.
