Court Marriage Delhi

Quick answer: Court marriage in Delhi costs from ₹6,100 as a complete advocate-assisted package (government registration fee is ₹100 under the Hindu Marriage Act 1955 and ₹15 under the Special Marriage Act 1954). It takes 3–7 days under the Hindu Marriage Act and 30 days under the Special Marriage Act (mandatory public notice). You need age proof, Aadhaar, address proof, passport photos and two witnesses. The certificate is issued by the SDM office and is valid across India and for apostille/visa use.

The 30-Day Notice, Explained Properly

Almost every question we are asked about court marriage is really a question about the notice period. People have heard that it is thirty days, they have heard that somebody can object, and they have heard that there is a way around it. Here is what actually happens, step by step, so that you can plan around facts rather than rumours.

What the notice is

A marriage under the Special Marriage Act, 1954 begins with a written notice of intended marriage given by both parties to the Marriage Officer of a district in which at least one of you has resided for at least thirty days immediately before the notice. The notice is in the form prescribed by the Act and it states both parties’ particulars.

Two separate thirty-day periods are involved, and confusing them is the single commonest planning mistake:

• Thirty days of residence before you may give notice. This is about where you live, and it is over before the file even opens.
• Thirty days of public notice after you have given it. This is the waiting period everybody talks about.

Back to back, that is roughly two months from the day you decide, not one — and a couple who has just arrived in Delhi cannot give notice today, however urgent the situation is.

What happens to the notice

The Marriage Officer enters the notice in the Marriage Notice Book and publishes it by affixing a copy at a conspicuous place in the office. The Marriage Notice Book is open to inspection at all reasonable times, without fee. Where neither party is permanently residing within the Officer’s district, a copy is also sent to the Marriage Officer of the district where each party permanently resides, to be published there in the same way.

That last sentence is one that couples should read twice, because it is the part nobody mentions and the part that matters most to a couple whose families do not know. The notice can travel to your home district. If you are from Meerut and giving notice in Delhi, a copy can be published in Meerut.

Who can object, and on what grounds

Any person may object to the marriage before the thirty days expire — but only on the ground that the marriage would contravene one or more of the conditions in section 4 of the Act. Those conditions are the substantive ones: neither party having a living spouse; both being capable of giving valid consent and not suffering from the disorders the section describes; the ages of twenty-one and eighteen; and the parties not being within the degrees of prohibited relationship.

Read that list again and notice what is not on it. Family disapproval is not a ground. Caste is not a ground. Religion is not a ground. “We had other plans for her” is not a ground. An objection that does not allege a breach of section 4 is not a valid objection at all, and the Marriage Officer is not deciding whether your family is happy.

What happens if somebody does object

The Act sets out the procedure, and it is finite:

1. The Marriage Officer shall not solemnise the marriage until he has inquired into the objection and is satisfied that it does not prevent the marriage.
2. He is required to decide the inquiry within thirty days of the objection being made.
3. For the purposes of the inquiry he has the powers of a civil court in specified respects — summoning witnesses, examining them on oath, requiring documents.
4. If he upholds the objection and refuses to solemnise, either party may appeal to the district court within thirty days, and the district court’s decision is final.
5. Where an objection is found to be frivolous and not made in good faith, the Act empowers the Marriage Officer to award costs against the person who made it.

So an objection is not the end of a marriage. It is a delay with a defined length and a defined remedy. In practice, most objections in inter-caste and inter-faith cases allege nothing that section 4 covers, and they fail for that reason. What they do achieve is time and exposure — which is precisely why they are made.

The honest planning advice

If your families are supportive, the notice is a formality that nobody will ever look at, and there is nothing here to worry about.

If your families are strongly opposed, take the notice seriously as a practical matter, even though it is weak as a legal obstacle:

• Know before you file that the notice is publicly displayed and may be published in your home district as well.
• Decide, before day one, where you will both live for those thirty days and whether that is safe.
• Keep both phones live, keep documents on you and photographed into both email accounts, and tell one person outside the situation where you are.
• If there is a real apprehension of harm, a protection petition before the High Court is a recognised remedy, and it is an advocate’s work — not ours, and we will say so rather than taking money for it.
• Consider, honestly, whether the Arya Samaj route with registration fits your situation instead. Where both of you are Hindu, Sikh, Jain or Buddhist, it is lawful, it is faster, and it involves no public notice at all. We say this knowing it moves you from our ₹15,000 service to our ₹7,100 one.

The Residence Requirement: What Counts and What Does Not

This decides whether your file can even be opened, so it is worth being exact.

What the Act requires: that at least one of the two parties has resided in the district of the Marriage Officer for at least thirty days immediately preceding the date on which the notice is given. Only one of you. Not both.

What is usually put forward to show it: an Aadhaar showing the local address; a registered rent agreement, or a notarised one with supporting material; electricity, water, gas or landline bills; a bank statement showing the address; an employer’s letter confirming where you live; a ration card; or a landlord’s declaration. What the office is really assessing is a simple question of fact: do you actually live there?

What does not count:

• A hotel room, a guest house, a dharamshala or a friend’s floor for a few weeks. A stay is not a residence, and an office assessing a residence claim knows the difference.
• An address in a different state that happens to be nearby. Kaushambi, Vaishali, much of Sahibabad, Noida, Gurugram, Faridabad, Ghaziabad and Sonipat are not Delhi, however close they are and however Delhi the address feels. Ask “is this address in Delhi or not?” before you sign a rent agreement, because for this Act it decides everything.
• A rent agreement dated last week. It does not, by itself, establish thirty days of residence. An agreement dated two months ago, with a couple of bills and an Aadhaar updated to that address, comfortably does.

If you live in different districts — one in Delhi, one in Noida, say — the notice is given to the Marriage Officer of the district where one of you satisfies the thirty days, and the copy provisions described above apply to the other party’s permanent residence. You do not both have to move.

What we will not do about residence. We will not draft an affidavit claiming an address you do not live at, arrange a rent agreement for a room you have never occupied, or file a notice on a document we can see was created for the purpose. This is the request we refuse most often on Special Marriage Act files, and the reason is not squeamishness: a false residence claim sits on a public record for the rest of your life and surfaces at the worst possible moment.

The Solemnisation Day: What Actually Happens

The day itself is far less dramatic than couples expect, and knowing its shape removes most of the nerves.

Who must be there. Both parties, in person, and three witnesses. Not two — three. This is one of the real differences from a Hindu Marriage Act ceremony, and it is the single commonest reason a Special Marriage Act appointment has to be rescheduled.

What happens. The marriage is solemnised at the Marriage Officer’s office, or at a reasonable distance from it if the parties ask for that and pay the prescribed additional fee. The parties and the three witnesses sign a declaration in the form the Act prescribes, in the presence of the Marriage Officer, who countersigns it. There is a form of words in which each party declares, in the presence of the Officer and the witnesses, that they take the other to be their lawful wife or husband. It may be said in any language understood by the parties. No religious ceremony of any kind is required, and none is performed — that is the whole point of the Act.

The certificate. The Marriage Officer then enters a certificate in the Marriage Certificate Book, signed by the parties and the three witnesses. That entry is conclusive evidence that the marriage has been solemnised and that the formalities were complied with. This is your marriage certificate, and it is a different and stronger thing than a registration certificate for a ceremony that happened elsewhere.

Before you leave the counter, check: both names and their exact spellings, both fathers’ names, the date, the place, and both dates of birth. A correction made on the spot takes a minute; the same correction afterwards means a fresh application, a fee and another day off work. This one minute has saved more of our clients more trouble than any other sentence on this page.

Who can be a witness

An adult who genuinely knows you, carries their own original photo identity and address proof, and attends in person on the day. Three of them for a Special Marriage Act solemnisation; two for an Arya Samaj ceremony.

We do not provide witnesses. Not for a fee, not as a favour, not because you are new to Delhi and not because your family will not come. It is a fixed term of how we work and it is written into our terms and conditions. A paid witness is a false statement to a public authority, and it leaves your marriage record open to challenge at exactly the moment you most need it to be solid — a visa interview, an insurance claim, a property dispute.

Almost every couple who tells us they have nobody, finds three when they sit down and actually think: a cousin already working here, a friend from your town, a colleague, a batchmate, the friend whose sofa you slept on in your first week. Ask them a week ahead, tell them what to bring, and confirm the night before.

What Changes Legally the Moment You Are Married Under This Act

This section exists because almost nobody is told any of it, and two of the three points can matter a great deal to a family with property or a business.

Succession

The Special Marriage Act provides that succession to the property of a person whose marriage is solemnised under the Act is regulated by the Indian Succession Act, 1925 — not by the personal law that would otherwise have applied. The Act contains a specific saving for parties who are both Hindu, Buddhist, Sikh or Jain, for whom the position is dealt with separately. If property is a significant part of your planning, ask an advocate about this before you give notice, not after the certificate is issued. It is not a reason to avoid the Act; it is a reason to go in informed.

Joint family property

The Act also provides that where a member of an undivided family professing the Hindu, Buddhist, Sikh or Jain religion marries under it, that marriage is deemed to effect his severance from the undivided family. In a family that runs a business through an HUF, or holds ancestral property, that is a real consequence and not a technicality. Again: ask, before the notice, not afterwards.

Everything else that changes on any marriage

These apply whichever route you took, and they are the ones people forget for years:

• Nominations. EPF Form 2 and gratuity Form F nominations do not carry over on marriage, and a great many people still have a parent named years later. Insurance, bank accounts and PPF nominations need the same check. Note also that a nominee is a receiver, not an owner — nomination does not override succession law, with a deliberate exception for insurance where a parent, spouse or child nominee is a beneficial nominee.
• Aadhaar and bank KYC, for whichever of you has moved or is changing a name.
• Employer records — spouse details, medical cover, emergency contact. Group medical cover usually has a window of about thirty days to add a spouse.
• Passport. Adding spouse particulars, or a name change, is a re-issue, which changes the passport number. And no law requires anybody to change their surname. If you choose to, the sequence is affidavit, newspaper notices, Gazette of India, then Aadhaar, PAN, bank KYC, employer, and passport last.
• A joint account, a will, and a medical directive, if you are going to have them. A will costs little and settles a great deal; it is an advocate’s work and we take no share of that fee.

Which Route Is Actually Right for You

We would rather talk you into the correct route than the expensive one, so here it is laid out honestly, including the cases where the honest answer costs us the larger booking.

The comparison people most often get wrong is the first two rows. If you are both Hindu, Sikh, Jain or Buddhist, you are not obliged to use the Special Marriage Act at all, and the Arya Samaj route is both lawful and dramatically faster — a real marriage under the Hindu Marriage Act, with havan and saptapadi, followed by government registration. Couples come to us convinced they need the sixty-day route because somebody used the phrase “court marriage”, and a good number of them walk out having saved seven weeks and ₹7,900.

And the comparison nobody should get wrong: if you are of different faiths and somebody suggests a quick conversion so that you can use the faster route, stop. Conversion is a serious, permanent decision with consequences of its own, it should never be done under time pressure or to solve a paperwork problem, and the Special Marriage Act exists precisely so that nobody has to. Our inter-religion marriage guide deals with the whole question honestly.

If Either of You Was Married Before

A large share of the files we turn away are turned away here, so read this before you pay anybody anything.

A living spouse is an absolute bar. Section 4 of the Special Marriage Act requires that neither party has a spouse living, and a second marriage during the subsistence of a first is void for those governed by the Hindu Marriage Act and is an offence. We will not register or assist with such a marriage at any price, and the person who suffers most from one is almost always the second woman, who discovers at a bank counter or after a death that the status she believed she had does not exist.

What we need to see, and what will not do:

• A decree of divorce, in original or certified copy, with the case details legible. Not an affidavit saying the marriage “is finished”. Not a panchayat paper. Not a talaqnama presented as a decree.
• The appeal position dealt with. A decree is one thing; whether the time for appeal has run, or an appeal is pending, is another, and it affects when a party may lawfully remarry. Ask your advocate to confirm it in writing before you fix a date.
• A death certificate where a spouse has died. Again the document, not an assurance.

For a Muslim party, the position on a prior marriage and on the form of dissolution is governed by the applicable law and by the documents you actually hold, and it is not something to settle from a web page. Bring what you have — the nikahnama, any talaqnama or khula document, any court order — and we will tell you plainly whether it is enough for the office, and send you to an advocate where it is not.

Children from a first marriage keep their position as heirs whatever happens next, and a step-parent does not become a legal parent by marriage — that needs an adoption. Maintenance obligations from a first marriage do not disappear because there is a second household.

When One Party Is a Foreign National or an NRI

The Special Marriage Act is the route most cross-border couples end up using, and it works — but the paperwork is longer and the planning has to start earlier.

What is typically required in addition to the ordinary documents:

• Passport and a valid visa for the foreign national, and evidence of lawful stay covering the whole period.
• A no-impediment certificate or certificate of no objection to marriage, issued by that person’s embassy or high commission in India — each mission has its own procedure, form and timeline, and some take weeks. Start with the embassy, not with us.
• Proof of the thirty days’ residence if the foreign national is the party relying on it — which, for somebody on a short visit, is usually the binding constraint. It is generally easier for the Indian party to be the one who satisfies residence.
• Documents in a foreign language translated by a recognised translator, and attested or apostilled as required.
• Divorce decrees or death certificates from abroad, properly attested or apostilled.

Plan for the visa, not for the wedding. The commonest failure we see is a couple who plan a sixty-day process around a thirty-day visit. Work backwards from the date the foreign national must leave, add the embassy’s own timeline for the no-impediment certificate, and only then pick a date.

After the marriage, if the certificate is going to be used abroad, it will usually need apostille (for countries party to the Hague Convention) or embassy attestation (for those that are not), through the Ministry of External Affairs process. And for an OCI application based on marriage, note the requirement that the marriage be registered and subsisting for the period prescribed. Our NRI marriage page and our apostille guide go through that side in detail.

One warning specific to this group. Cross-border matches are the ones most often built on a lie about an existing marriage, an immigration status, or a job. Verify who you are marrying before you build a file around them — our guide on verifying a match sets out how, plainly.

What It Really Costs, End to End

Our charges are the same for everybody. They do not rise because you are in a hurry, because you have travelled a long way, because a family is creating pressure, or because you called on a Sunday.

Government charges are separate and shown at cost, on their own line of your receipt with our charge on another. We add nothing to them and we round nothing up. If your receipt does not let you see exactly where every rupee went, tell us and we will rewrite it. The full list is on our fees page, and it is the same list quoted on every page of this site.

Costs that are yours and not ours, so that nothing is a surprise: e-stamp paper and notary charges for affidavits; photographs; courier, if documents have to come from another state; translation and attestation, on a cross-border file; and an advocate’s fee for anything that ends in a court — a protection petition, a divorce, a succession matter. We take no share of any advocate’s fee and we have no arrangement with anybody.

What We Will Not Do

Written out so that you can hold us to it, and so that you know what to make of anybody who offers the opposite.

• We do not provide witnesses. Two for an Arya Samaj ceremony, three for a Special Marriage Act solemnisation, all of them people who genuinely know you.
• We do not touch an under-age marriage. Under the Prohibition of Child Marriage Act, 2006 the minimum age is 21 for the groom and 18 for the bride. We decline in every case, at any price, whoever is asking and however the situation is explained — and we decline where a document appears to have been altered. Wait for the birthday and come back.
• We stop if either party is not giving a clear, free yes, in their own words. We speak to both parties separately to find out, in a language each is comfortable in, and if somebody has been brought along to answer on another’s behalf we ask them to step outside. If you are the person who is unsure, ask to speak to us alone; you will not be argued with, and nothing will be reported to the people waiting.
• We do not register a marriage while an earlier one subsists.
• We do not manufacture a residence, a rent agreement, an affidavit or an age proof, and we do not back-date anything.
• We do not promise to shorten a statutory period, and we will tell you when a date you have set is not achievable.
• We do not charge an urgency, distance, weekend or deadline surcharge.
• We do not practise law. Protection petitions, objections and appeals, divorce, maintenance, custody, succession and property go to an independent advocate acting in their own name, whose fee we take no share of.
• We do not discuss your file with anybody — not a family, not an employer, not a caller who says it is urgent. If there is a particular number or name to be careful about, tell us at the start and it goes on your file.

Which Office, and the 2026 District Map

Applications and appointments in Delhi run through the Delhi e-District portal: you create an account, complete the application, upload the documents, and are given an appointment at the sub-divisional office the portal allots on the basis of what you enter.

Do not plan a morning around an office name you read on a website — including this one. Under the revenue reorganisation effective 1 January 2026, Delhi has 13 districts and 39 sub-divisions, and a number of familiar names are no longer sub-divisions at all. Shahdara, made a district in 2012, is now a sub-division of the North East district. Saraswati Vihar is gone. Vasant Vihar and Hauz Khas are not sub-division names on the current map. Apply first, see what you are allotted, and then plan the travel.

Two clarifications that save people a wasted trip:

No court marries you and no court registers you. Registration is done by the SDM or the Registrar of Marriages, and a Special Marriage Act marriage is solemnised before the Marriage Officer. “Court marriage” is everyday shorthand for a civil marriage or registration, not a description of a building. Tis Hazari, Karkardooma, Saket, Rohini, Dwarka and Patiala House are court complexes: they handle matrimonial litigation — divorce, maintenance, custody, protection orders — which is advocate work. The men with plastic folders outside those gates trade on exactly this confusion.

An old certificate is not invalidated by a renamed office. A document is not cancelled, weakened or made “old” because an office was renamed, merged, split or abolished. Anybody offering to “re-do” or “renew” a certificate for that reason is selling you something you do not need, and that particular fraud is run on older people more than anyone else.

The Document Checklist, Mapped to Real Life

The list is short. What takes the time is where each item has to come from, so plan in this order:

• Age proof for both — matriculation certificate, birth certificate, passport, or where school was not completed, a school leaving or transfer certificate. Start with this one. It is the item most often sitting in a trunk in another state, and it is the item that most often holds up a file. Have it couriered; do not spend four days and a fare travelling for it.
• Photo identity for both — Aadhaar, voter card, driving licence or passport, in original.
• Address proof for both. A home-state address proof is perfectly valid and is not a disqualification; what you must never do is claim a Delhi address you do not have. For the Special Marriage Act specifically, one of you additionally needs the thirty days’ residence material described above.
• Passport photographs — several each. Get both sets done together so they match.
• Witnesses’ original identity and address proof — three sets for the Special Marriage Act, two for an Arya Samaj ceremony.
• Divorce decree or death certificate where either party was married before. No affidavit substitutes for it.
• For a foreign national — passport, valid visa, the embassy’s no-impediment certificate, and translations or apostilles where documents are not in English.
• Affidavits in the prescribed form, which we prepare, on e-stamp paper.

Do this today, whatever else you do: photograph every original onto both of your phones and into both of your email accounts. Keep the originals together, in one folder, that both of you know the location of. Documents that exist in only one bag are one theft, one flood and one family quarrel away from being gone — and re-obtaining an age proof from another state costs weeks, not days.

A Realistic Timeline

Nobody in this trade can beat those numbers. What a good service actually does is stop you losing four days to a missing document, a wrong upload or an office you were never allotted — which, in practice, is where most real-world delay comes from.

Twelve Mistakes That Cost People Weeks

1. Confusing the two thirty-day periods and planning for one month instead of two.
2. Bringing two witnesses to a Special Marriage Act solemnisation. Three are needed.
3. Assuming a nearby address is a Delhi address. Noida, Ghaziabad, Gurugram, Faridabad and Sonipat are not Delhi.
4. Trying to prove residence with a hotel stay or an agreement signed last week.
5. Using the Special Marriage Act when the Arya Samaj route fits and losing seven weeks for nothing.
6. Converting in a hurry to use a faster route, when the Act exists so that nobody has to.
7. Stopping at the mandir certificate on the Arya Samaj route and never completing registration. The mandir certificate records the ceremony; the government certificate is what a bank, an employer, a passport office or a court acts on.
8. Leaving the counter without checking the spellings.
9. Getting age proof last instead of first.
10. Believing somebody who says the notice period can be shortened.
11. Registering the same marriage twice — once here, once in a home state “to be safe”. Two records of one marriage is the discrepancy that stops a passport or a visa later.
12. Never updating the nominations after the wedding.

Four Situations, and What Actually Happened

Anonymised, and each one stands for many.

The couple who did not need us at ₹15,000. Both Hindu, both working in Gurugram, convinced by a relative that “court marriage” meant the sixty-day route. They had a family event in five weeks. We told them on the first call that the Arya Samaj route with registration was lawful, faster and ₹7,900 cheaper for them, and that is what they did. We would rather have that call than the larger booking, because the alternative is a couple who feel cheated six months later.

The objection that went nowhere. An inter-caste couple; notice filed; an uncle objected. The objection alleged nothing that section 4 covers — it was about the family’s standing in their village. The Marriage Officer inquired, was satisfied it did not prevent the marriage, and the solemnisation went ahead. It cost them three weeks and a great deal of anxiety, and it cost the uncle the argument. Knowing in advance that an objection has a defined procedure and a defined end is most of what gets a couple through it.

The visa that ran out. An Indian woman and a European partner planned the whole sixty-day process around a thirty-day visit, and the embassy’s no-impediment certificate took a further three weeks. The marriage happened eventually, on a second trip nine months later. Everything about it was avoidable by working backwards from the departure date on the first call.

The one we refused. A man wanted a marriage solemnised while a first marriage was subsisting, and offered to pay whatever it took. The answer was no. Such a marriage is void and it is an offence, and the piece of paper would have collapsed at the first counter that examined it — harming, above all, the woman it was supposedly for.

What Happens When You Call Us

No obligation and no charge for the conversation, and here is exactly what it consists of.

1. You send photographs of your documents on WhatsApp. Age proof, identity and address proof for both, and anything about a previous marriage.
2. We tell you within minutes which route applies, what is missing, and the honest timeline — including when the answer is “this cannot be done by your date” or “this is not us”.
3. We speak to both of you, and at some point separately, to be satisfied that both of you want this.
4. You get a written quote with our charge and the government charges on separate lines before anything is paid.
5. We prepare the affidavits and the application, and tell you exactly what to bring and who to bring.
6. You attend. Both of you, in person, with your own witnesses.
7. You check the certificate at the counter, and then we tell you the boring things to do in the following month — nominations, KYC, employer records.
