Marriage Certificate Request (Chinese Version -索取公開結婚證書認證副本申請表)

Many governmental agencies as well as employers require proof of marriage, which is the certified copy of a marriage certificate.  Effective January 1, 2010, California State Law, Health & Safety Code Section 103526 permits only authorized persons to obtain a certified copy (see application for defined list). Those who are not authorized will receive a certified copy marked, “Informational, not a valid document to establish identity.”
