What paperwork does your marriage need?

3 questions, instant result. Free, no strings attached.

Question 1 of 3

What is your situation?

What the check tells you

  • whether you need to open a preparatory marriage procedure in Switzerland;
  • whether you need a certificate of capacity to marry to get married abroad;
  • whether your marriage celebrated abroad must be registered in Switzerland;
  • whether your spouse needs a residence permit through family reunification.

What the check does not cover

The exact documents depend on your canton and your country of origin, and the conditions for family reunification (housing, income, language) depend on your situation. That is what our file check for CHF 90 covers, with a written report within 48 hours.
