WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BE MARRIED IN MEXICO?
by Eleanor S. Morris
Well, just like in the US, regulations vary by state, and
sometimes by city. Hiring a wedding consultant is a good idea, and a good
source is Weddings on the Move, Inc. They take care of all legal documentation,
wedding packages and destination. (4524 Dollar Dr., West Bend, WI 53095,
USA, http://www.idoweddings.com).
Here's what you'll need:
- Certified copy of you and your partner's birth certificates
or valid passports.
- A blood test taken within 15 days of the wedding date.
Some cities require that the test be done in Mexico, or at least notarized
by a Mexican doctor.
- Copy of tourist card or visa.
- Four witnesses. Check with city; some require Mexicans,
with others U.S. citizens are fine.
- Fulfilling these requirement takes 2 to 4 days to be
complete.
- If you are divorced or widowed, one full year must elapse
from date of the following:
- Divorced, final dissolution of marriage must be verified
with a certified copy of the divorce decree.
- Widowed, a certified copy of spouse's death certificate
must be verified.
