Hi Guys,

Anyone can tell me what is the procedure for Registration of Marriage?

I already taken the form from JPN however the officer inform me that i need to go again to JPN to have an oath then only can go to places like the temple to do the registration? What is the different in doing so? Really very confuse on this.

Procedure for doing at JPN
1. take form and get it signed in front of commissioner of oath
2. return the form back to JPN and pay $ and they will give you a date to come back for the marriage oath taking process + official marriage registration at JPN.
3. Go to JPN with your 2 witnesses to sign the official marriage certificate in front of the registra. You're legally married.

Procedure at temple/church
1. collect the form from your church/temple and fill up your details.
2. bring form to the commissioner of oath and sign the form
3. return the form to JPN and pay $ and he will issue you a receipt + chop the form
4. bring the receipt + form back to your priest/pastor and he will set a date for you to come back with your witnesses
5. on the date return to the church with your 2 witnesses to sign the marriage certificate in front of the priest/pastor. You're officially married

If my wife and I are born in different states, can we register our marriage at the same JPN branch?

Thank you.

Yes, you can nowadays. Records are all online.
