Legalisation of UK marriage cert with IHC

Hi all,

New to this forum, please bear if it's not the correct place to post.

I (Indian passport holder on Tier 2) registered my marriage with my partner (British passport holder) in London couple of months ago.

I wanted to enquire if anyone is aware how to procure Indian marriage certificate using UK marriage certificate? Is UK marriage cert recognised in India? Is there any service in Indian High Commission to help issue an equivalent Indian marriage cert?

Many thanks.

Are you sure they would issue an Indian Marriage certificate? After all you were married in the UK, by a UK registrar. For an Indian Marriage certificate I presume you'd have to go through the same process in India.

Perhaps they would issue some document recognising your UK Marriage Certificate. But they will recognise a legalised/appostiled UK document anyway, so not sure what this would offer above getting your UK certificate legalised. In fact I presume they'd make you get it legalised/appostiled anyway, prior to issuing any Indian version.

Here is a link to the legalisation/aposstile service:
