Legal Requirements For Getting Married In Trinidad & Tobago

Couples wanting to get married must first give Notice of Marriage in person at a Civil Registry office. This includes those who wish to get married through a religious ceremony in a church.  If any one of the parties is subject to Immigration Control they must contact the Registrar General to request permission to marry in Trinidad and Tobago.

Before giving Notice of Marriage the parties must:

Make an appointment to give notice in person at the registrar's office. If either or both parties are not citizens of Trinidad and Tobago, they should contact the Registrar General’s Office before giving Notice of Marriage.

Know the venue for the marriage, such as a registrar's office, church or other location.

Bring the following documents to the appointment:
