Applying for a certificate of legal capacity to marry in Cyprus
Are you a Dutch national living in Cyprus and you need a certificate of legal capacity to marry? The Dutch embassy in Nicosia does not issue this certificate.
In Cyprus you can apply for the certificate in two ways:
- Through a "local certifying officer".
- Through an affidavit from the Court of Justice.
Warning: Are you a Dutch national living in the Netherlands (or have you lived in the Netherlands previously)? You can get a certificate of legal capacity to marry from the Dutch municipality where you live or the last municipality you lived in before you left the Netherlands. Go to the website of the relevant municipality for more information.
