If you have no marriage certificate or photos, by relying on other evidence such as witness statements, invitation cards, messages, or proof of living together. I can help you assess the available evidence and guide you through filing the divorce petition.

Yes, you can file for divorce even if you do not have marriage certificate, as long as you can show that the marriage actually took place. In most cases, proof can be supported through witness statements, wedding invitations, photos from relatives, joint documents, messages, or any other evidence showing the marital relationship. If the marriage was not registered, that does not prevent you from filing divorce. The important point is that a valid marriage existed under the applicable personal law and that the parties lived as husband and wife.

Yes, you can file for divorce even if the marriage is not registered and you do not have a marriage certificate or photographs, provided you can establish that a valid marriage was solemnized under the applicable law. For a Hindu marriage, registration is not mandatory for validity under the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955. However, you will need to provide other available evidence to prove the marriage, such as witness statements, wedding invitations, or other relevant records. The exact legal remedy depends on the facts of your case.
