What must foreign citizens submit to legally obtain a marriage license in the Philippines?
Foreign designated nationals absolutely strictly must thoroughly definitively prove their fundamental explicit legal capacity to legitimately marry. When effectively either entirely or perfectly both of the intended contracting parties exactly are verified citizens of a foreign country, they must formally legitimately submit a proper certificate of legal capacity. This highly crucial evidentiary certificate absolutely fundamentally must be formally officially properly issued securely by their respective diplomatic or consular officials. Legitimate stateless persons definitively must legitimately securely submit a specific sworn valid affidavit, as entirely strictly formally stated in Article 21 Family Code of the Philippines,. “Art. 21. When either or both of the contracting parties are citizens of a foreign country, it shall be necessary for them before a marriage license can be obtained, to submit a certificate of legal capacity to contract marriage, issued by their respective diplomatic or consular officials.” 31-Jul-26About Nicolas and De Vega Law Offices
