Marriage Notice Filed in Hong Kong or from oversea countries

Foreigners can register their marriages in Hong Kong.

A civil celebrant of marriages is recognised to solemnize a valid and legal marriage in Hong Kong. Before you proceed to a wedding, a Notice of Intended Marriage on the prescribed form must be given in advance.

To be safe:

  • 25-30 days in between if the marriage Notice is filed locally
  • 45-90 days in between if the marriage Notice is filed overseas.
