[quote=JIMMYB,244890]Nowadays, cross-nation marriages are usual in China. However, most new foreigners do not understand the procedures of getting married. Many of them will ask the same question: How can I get married in China? To answer this question, here are the procedures and steps for the cross-nation marriages( Sino-foreigner marriages). Source: www.china.org.cn. Note: The following only applies to Sino-foreign marriages. Local-level marriage registration offices are the governmental bodies responsible for legally uniting Chinese nationals under Chinese law. Step 1: Submit the required documents The Sino-foreign couple must go together, in person to the appropriate marriage registration office and submit a completed marriage registration application form (available at the marriage registration office). The appropriate marriage registration office will be the one in the jurisdiction in which the Chinese partner is registered (the location of the hukou). Together with the application form, the couple must submit a number of other documents: Chinese Partner (1) A certificate of marriageability (2) A certificate of birth (3) Household registration book (hukou) (4) A health certificate (obtainable from a regional-level local hospital) (5) A letter from the parents of the Chinese partner giving permission for their child to marry a foreigner (this letter should include the index fingerprint of both parents below their signatures and date) Foreign Partner (6) A current passport (7) Chinese residence permit (8) A health certificate from a local hospital designated by the marriage registration office (9) Three photos of the marrying couple, taken together (10) A registration fee (11) A certificate of marriageability.
