How to get married in Europe? Marriage. Registration in Andorra
Official registration of marriage in Andorra is possible only between citizens or residents of the principality or if at least one of the future spouses has the citizenship or residence of Andorra. In order to become husband and wife, you must apply to the Registre Civil (Civil Registry Office), and then, about a month after the application is submitted, you need to return to the office and pick up the official marriage certificate. As well as this, according to the law of marriage (Llei qualificada del matrimoni), within six months (after the expiry of this period the permit becomes invalid) it is necessary to go to the official registration in one of the seven administrations (Andorra la Vella, Escaldes- Engordany, Encamp, Sant Julia de Loria, Canillo, La Massana, Ordino) — in Andorra they are called Comús. Those who marry can choose any of the seven administrations.
Registration is conducted by the mayor of the parish in the administration building, after which a certificate confirming the registration of the marriage will be issued. The whole ceremony takes no more than 20 minutes. Marriage in Andorra is called matrimoni.
The documents necessary for marriage for Andorrans and foreigners are more or less the same: you need a passport, a certificate of birth, a certificate of civil status, a certificate of residency (for foreigners — a residence permit issued by the Immigration service of Andorra) — Autorització de residència del Servei d’Immigració.
