Registering Your Marriage


It is important to understand the dynamics of the legal system to get a gist of how and when to register your marriage. This will equip you with the necessary knowledge of how to go about setting your civil marriage solemnization, religious ceremony and reception dates. Knowing the time factor requirements for the solemnization of your wedding will help you avoid any unintended situati***** in which you have to re-schedule or delay your religious ceremonies, recepti***** and other engagements. The following illustrates the process of filing a solemnization date by the Registry of Marriages, Singapore. Detailed requirements for the filing of your marriage can be found on the Registry of Marriages, Singapore website.


Non-Islamic Marriages

Irrespective of whether you decide to register your marriage directly at the Registry of Marriages (ROM) venue, or at a religious venue, it is imperative that you file a notice of your civil marriage at least 21 days before the actual solemnization date. You are able to then register a date for solemnization between 21 days and 3 months after filing for a notice of marriage. If you are getting married within the premises of the ROM, you may be able to change solemnization details until the day of the ceremony before the wedding. However, if you are getting married at a venue that’s outside of the ROM, you can change the date of solemnization up until 5-10 days before. You cannot change the date of solemnization to one that is beyond 3 months of filing the notice. You are only able to solemnize your wedding at the ROM venue from Mondays to Fridays.


Application Procedure


Applicants are required to go to the NRD counter/Assistant Registrar appointed by the Malaysian C*****ul/Embassy with the following supporting documents:
1. Identity card
2. Passport for foreign citizens
3. 1 coloured photo (32mm X 38mm)
4. C*****ensus form /licence (if relevant)
5. Birth certificate (for applicants 16-20 years old)
6. Death certificate (if relevant) Letter confirming marital status (single)
If divorced:

2. Decree nisi for absolute divorce (original & photocopy)

Information: The form in the website is only a guide. It should not be printed and used for dealings with the Marriage and Divorce Section. For dealings with this section, please use the original form.
Do note that you cannot cancel a notice of marriage as well. As written on the Registry of Marriage, Singapore website, the Singapore law states that ‘If the marriage does not take place within 3 months after the date of notice, the notice and all proceedings c*****equent thereupon shall be void, and fresh notice shall be given before the parties can lawfully marry.’ Hence, if you are not able to solemnize your wedding within the three months, you will have to once again file for a notice of marriage at the ROM.


Islamic Marriages

When registering your marriage at the Registry of Muslim Marriages (ROMM), you would have to file a notification of marriage a minimum of 7 and a maximum of 150 days before the date you wish to get solemnized. You can change the date of solemnization within the 7 to 150 day time frame from the date you registered the notice of marriage. If you wish to change the solemnization date beyond the 150 days, you will have to re-register your notice of marriage. If you have both made a decision to cancel your solemnization, both you and your partner would have to come down to the ROMM and cancel it in the presence of a Kadi.
