Verified reviews of this service

It is an official document issued by the Civil Registry that certifies the celebration of a marriage. Unlike the family book, this certificate is an updated extract from the Registry that includes all relevant marginal annotations (such as divorces or subsequent separations) and has full legal validity for any administrative or judicial procedure.

It is required for multiple legal and administrative procedures:

• Divorce or legal separation proceedings
• Inheritances, wills, and notarial deeds
• Applications for Spanish or foreign nationality
• Processing visas and residence permits
• National and international adoptions
• Procedures with Social Security and pensions
• Purchase and sale of real estate under community property regime
• Changes of marital status in official documents

Yes, you can manage the entire process 100% electronically without needing to go in person to the Civil Registry. By completing our online form, we handle processing your request directly with the corresponding Registry and deliver the certificate in digital format or physically to your home.

This service is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, from any device with an internet connection.

The issuance time varies according to the workload of each Civil Registry, but generally ranges between 3 and 15 business days from when the request is submitted.

Civil Registries of large cities usually take longer (10-15 days), while those of smaller populations can be faster (3-7 days). If you have requested the Apostille of the Hague, add 3-5 additional business days for this procedure.

We will keep you informed of the status of your request at all times.

Literal Certificate: includes all complete data of the marriage registration in Spanish, with all marginal annotations. It is the most complete and required for most procedures in Spain (divorces, inheritances, notaries).

Multilingual Certificate: is an international format issued in several official languages that facilitates use in other countries without the need for sworn translation. It is ideal for procedures abroad, although for some countries the Apostille of the Hague is also required.

The Apostille of the Hague is a legalization stamp that certifies the authenticity of public documents for use in countries that signed the 1961 Hague Convention (more than 120 countries).

You need the Apostille if you are going to use the certificate in:

• European Union countries for certain specific procedures
• United States, Canada, Australia
• Most Latin American countries
• Many countries in Asia and Africa

For countries that did not sign the Convention, consular legalization is required. Consult with us if you have questions about your specific case.

To process your marriage certificate you will need to provide:

• Full names and surnames of both spouses
• Date of birth of both spouses
• Exact date of the marriage celebration
• Municipality and province where the marriage took place
• Registry data if you know them: Volume, Folio, Page (optional but speeds up the procedure)

If you do not have all this information, do not worry. Our team can help you locate the missing information by contacting the corresponding Civil Registry.

Yes, as long as your marriage is registered in the Spanish Civil Registry. Marriages celebrated abroad must be registered in the corresponding Consular Civil Registry or, after returning to Spain, in the Central Civil Registry.

If your marriage is not yet registered in Spain, you must first complete this procedure before being able to request the certificate. We can advise you on how to proceed in your specific case.

You can request up to 3 copies of the same certificate in a single procedure. This is useful when you need to submit the document to several institutions simultaneously (for example, court, notary, and bank).

If you need the Apostille of the Hague, you can also request up to 3 apostilled copies of the same certificate.

The marriage certificate itself does not expire, as it is a certification of an event that occurred on a specific date. However, many institutions and organizations require the certificate to have a recent issue date.

Most procedures require the certificate to have been issued within the last 3 to 6 months. Therefore, it is always recommended to request it when you actually need it, not too far in advance.
