01 Marriage in Romania: the basics



Where can I get married in Romania?

Romania has a civil law system, and according to its Constitution, civil marriage is the only legally valid form. This means that any kind of religious marriage is not valid. You can celebrate your marriage according to your rites only after you have concluded the civil marriage ceremony (there is a criminal penalty for the minister of religion for not respecting this rule).

If the couple chooses to marry in Switzerland (where many of his maternal relatives live) they'd also be required to have a civil ceremony. If they marry in the UK, then no civil ceremony is required first.
