Does my Danish marriage certificate need extra legalisations

Getting married in Denmark

Once you have your certificates and you have had a wonderful trip to Denmark you then need to understand if you need to have an Apostille Stamp on your international marriage certificate.

Even though your Danish marriage certificate is valid and legal worldwide there may be some offices that need an extra authentication.

An Apostille Stamp is essentially a stamp made by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs that ensures that the certificate is a ‘true’ Danish document and it is valid for use in other countries.  We can arrange this for you at any point in the process, we can do it immedatley after the ceremony or 6 months after or 6 years!  All we need is an original copy of the certificate (we can re-order these from the town hall if needed) and we will then get the Apostille Stamp.  for more information about this please see the article ‘What is an Apostille Stamp’.

Outside of the EU then you may need to have the certificate authenticated by an Embassy in Denmark.  

We strongly recommend that you contact the office where you will be registering the marriage to ask them exactly what is needed.  We will of course help with anything that we can for you to facilitate this.
