These are the Legal
Requirements for Costa Rica Marriages:
A marriage in Costa Rica is legal and binding if processed properly. It is mandatory that the ceremony is over seen by a certified public notary for a marriage license to be issued by the Costa Rican Civil Registry. We will coordinate these logistics and ensure that your embassy will authenticate your marriage.
You may print this page for your personal check list. The following items are requested of you in order for us to process your marriage correctly, depending on your particular circumstances:
IF NEITHER OF THE PARTIES HAS BEEN PREVIOUSLY MARRIED!
For both Bride and Groom we need the following data:
Father's full name and nationality
Mother's full maiden name and nationality
Original copy of passport
GKL & Associates will handle the rest…
All your data and statements will be included in a sworn statement which you both sign the
day of the wedding. You don’t need to notarize any of these documents at the Costa Rican
Consulate. Our Firm will take care of all the details.
