Can two China citizens get married in Canada?

Yes, you can. According to the regulations, China citizens who apply for marriage registration, both of whom are overseas, can apply to the embassy or consulate personally and submit:

1. A certificate of marital status issued by both parties' former domestic work units or relevant departments where their household registration is located and notarized by a domestic notary office;

2. Proof of marital status during the stay in Canada (this certificate must be notarized by a local notary or lawyer and certified by the provincial government or the Canadian Ministry of Foreign Affairs);

3. Passports of both parties;

4. Three half-length bareheaded photos of both sides (three inches);

5. The marriage certificate fee and handling fee are 60+ yuan per person;

6. Other materials that Consul China thinks should be submitted.

Weddings in Canada are divided into secular weddings and religious weddings.

1, secular ceremony

The secular ceremony is completed by the wedding host or judge appointed by the government. You should make an appointment with the wedding host or the judges in advance to make sure that they are likely to arrive at a certain wedding place (whether it is home, office or banquet hall) at a certain time on a certain day.

You must invite two witnesses to the wedding. Relatives and friends can attend the wedding. The whole ceremony takes about half an hour, excluding the time for taking photos and saying good wishes (if a wedding reception is to be held, it will be held after the wedding).

The beginning of the secular ceremony is that the host of the wedding first asks the names of both parties. Then ask them if there are any factors that prohibit marriage by law. Also ask them if they are willing to marry each other, and they will not abandon each other regardless of wealth, health, illness or any other situation.

If both sides answer yes, the wedding host will announce their formal marriage. Since then, the marital relationship between husband and wife has been formally established. Of course, there are some trivial procedures, such as husband and wife exchanging rings and kissing each other. After the secular ceremony is completed, the host will ask two witnesses to sign the marriage application form.

This application form will be sent by the organizer to the relevant departments of the provincial government. In a few weeks, they can get a formal marriage certificate.

2. Religious ceremonies

Religious ceremonies are usually held in churches, but they are also held at home, parks or banquet halls. As long as the priest or priest agrees to marry at the designated place.

Religious wedding ceremony, there will be more tidbits, just like in the movie, the bride slowly walks into the church from the gate with the help of the bride's father, the singers of the choir sing the wedding March, and the groom has to wait at the front desk. After the priest announces that they are husband and wife, the singers of the choir will also sing thanksgiving poems, thanking God for giving them the happiness of marriage.

After the religious ceremony is completed, the priest or priest will sign the certificate on the spot, which is the official marriage certificate. You don't need to apply for any marriage certificate from government agencies.
