encountered such a situation today. A customer said that his girlfriend was a Hong Kong citizen and wanted to register marriage with him in the Mainland. However, his girlfriend had two marriages before. The first one was divorced and the second one was widowed. He asked me what materials they should prepare to register for marriage in the Mainland in this case?
In fact, I have encountered this situation more than once during the application process. In fact, it is not as complicated as imagined. The materials required for mainland registration are relatively simple: just bring your ID card and household registration book.
Of course, if you are a Hong Kong citizen, you need to prepare more. The most basic ones are the ID card, the return certificate and the widow certificate. Since the Hong Kong citizen has two marriages, she needs to provide the marriage certificate and absolute divorce decree of her first marriage, as well as the marriage certificate of her second marriage and the death certificate of her spouse . Only in this way can it be proved that the two marriages have ended and she is currently single before she can register for marriage.
Some friends may have this question, Hong Kong belongs to China! Why do Hong Kong documents seem not to be recognized by the Mainland?
In fact, although Hong Kong has returned to the motherland, it belongs to the Special Administrative Region and has its own system. The mainland system cannot verify the authenticity of Hong Kong documents. If you want to use Hong Kong documents in the mainland, you must first notarize and authenticate the documents. Therefore, his girlfriend must bring the above information and entrust a China-appointed notary designated by the Ministry of Justice to do the notarization, and then entrust a Hong Kong lawyer to the China Legal Services (Hong Kong) Company to stamp the forwarding seal. After getting the notarized document, make two copies. Keep one copy yourself, and the law firm will send the other copy directly to the Civil Affairs Bureau where you want to obtain the certificate. Then go to the Mainland Civil Affairs Bureau to register your marriage.
