04-Jul-2023 (In Family Law)
Hi, I am a Sikh and getting married to a Sikh, who is a US citizen. I am a resident of Calcutta and my marriage is going to happen in Punjab, on October. I want to register my marriage within one or two days after the wedding ceremony. Which place do I need to register my marriage​, in Punjab or Calcutta? Also, should I get my marriage registered under Hindu Marriage Act or Special Marriage Act ?
It is advisable to have the marriage registered under Hindu Marriage Act and place of marriage you may choose either Punjab or Kolkata is depend upon you as there is no bar for getting the marriage registered in a place where you reside.
As you are the Husband and moreso you reside in calcutta abd being a hindu you should marry in Kolkata under section 7(2) of Hindu Marriage act by way of Saptapadi which completes your marriage after 7 rounds taken and then apply thereafter with a registrar the next day and within 7 working days the registration will be complete and you will be handed over your marriage certificate instantly.
Wish you all the best.
