You have to submit your Notice of Intended marriage to the local registry office, as well as evidence of your or your partner’s residency, certified copies of passports and birth certificates and photographs. Only one member of your party needs to be present to submit the notice.

( you’re a foreigner marrying an Indian citizen, you’ll also need to visit a lawyer to create an affidavit confirming that you’re a willing party to the marriage. This is in the absence of the presence of parents who are there to ‘give you away.)’

At the registry office, you’ll then sign three copies of your notice of intended marriage, and confirm your names and addresses to the registrar. If no one objects within the 30 day period before your wedding day, you can be legally married, again at the registrar. You’ll need three witnesses present, and several copies of the passports and proofs of address for all of your witnesses.

There’s a 30-day waiting period after your wedding, and then you can obtain your certificate which counts as legal proof that you’re married. In total, you should expect to spend at least 60 days in India, between both 30-day waiting periods before and after your wedding.

Documents needed for marriage in India between an Indian and foreigner:

The foreign party will need a visa for more than 30 days (we got married whilst I was on a 6 month Tourist visa)

Get married under special marriage act, easiest and hassle free

You can follow the process as mentioned in the Special Marriage Act and get married.

1) You can follow the Special Marriage Act, Law to get marriage and registered it.

You should approach the Registrar Court of Marriage and shall move an application for getting your marriage done. You will be required to submit following as a proof -

1. Affidavit of both parties stating your credentials such as Name, Date of Birth, Place of Birth, Place of residence, Religion, Nationality etc. stating that both the parties are moving before the court in their senses and have not been coerced in any manner for the same. This affidavit will be prepared by a local notary officer.

2. Copy of Identity proof of both the parties

3. Copy of Address proof of both the parties (Rent agreement older than 2 months will do but that has to be registered with the registrar court. A normal notary based rent agreement will not do in this case.)

4. Copy of Aadhar Card of the bridegroom and Copy of Passport in your case (since you are not an Indian)

You will file an application for marriage before the Registrar Court of Marriage under the Special Marriage Act (SMA) of India. Under the SMA none of you have to change their religion to get married to each other. You will be requiring three witness at the date of marriage to attain the finality of marriage done from the court. The entire process will take 45 days which will begin from such date on which you have moved your application. In actual the entire time period allotted to complete the process of marriage registration is 90 days. So in case it takes more than 45 days then do not get worried you will still have some time to get the process completed.

Otherwise what you can do is you can convert your religion as Hindu and then can get yourself married from the Arya Samaj Temple. A marriage done from Arya Samaj Temple can be easily registered before the Registrar Court of Marriage under Hindu Marriage Act. However it is not advisable from my side. I will advise you to get your marriage done under SMA only.

You can get married under The Special Marriage Act (1954). Under the Act, there’s a 30 day residency requirement, which means that either the bride or the groom has to be living in India for at least 30 days prior to applying to the local registry office to get married.

You need to submit evidence of residency, certified copies of passports and birth certificates, and two passport sized photographs each.

You may marry in India under Special Marriage Act.

Normal process takes a month to register the marriage. You along with the boy should apply for the marriage with the Registrar in Pune with KYC details of both the parties. The parties may appear for registration if there is no objection from any party to this marriage and obtain the certificate.

You may hire an advocate locally to help you in process of marriage.

Good Luck!!!
