Notarizing Documents for International Marriages in Ontario:
Congratulations on your upcoming international marriage! If you’re a resident of Ontario planning to tie the knot abroad, you may be required to provide a Statement in Lieu of Certificate of Non-Impediment to Marriage. This statement is an official declaration that you are legally free to marry and that there are no legal impediments preventing your marriage. One crucial step in this process is to notarize the necessary documents, ensuring their validity and authenticity.
What is a Statement in Lieu of Certificate of Non-Impediment to Marriage?
A Statement in Lieu of Certificate of Non-Impediment to Marriage is a legal document that serves as proof that you’re eligible to marry according to Ontario’s laws. It is often required by foreign countries as part of their marriage registration process. Essentially, it declares that there are no legal obstacles to your marriage, such as existing marriages, age restrictions, or any other prohibitions.
Notarizing the documents for a Statement in Lieu of Certificate of Non-Impediment to Marriage is an essential step to ensure their authenticity and acceptance in the foreign country where you plan to marry.
Before proceeding, it’s important to consult the requirements of the foreign country where you plan to marry and confirm the specific documents needed for your situation.
