Wedding in Mexico

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. A civil marriage at Mexico's Registro Civil, once the marriage certificate is apostilled, is recognized in all Hague Convention countries, including the US, Canada, EU, UK, Russia and Ukraine.

Passports, tourist cards (FMM), apostilled and translated birth certificates, single-status certificates, a blood test done in Mexico, and 4 witnesses with valid ID.

The Registro Civil fee ranges from $200 to $400 depending on the state, plus the blood test (~$40), translations and apostille. Full-service ceremony planning is quoted individually.

Document prep takes 3–5 business days after blood tests. The Registro Civil ceremony can be scheduled within a week. The marriage certificate is issued on the ceremony day; the apostille takes another 3–7 days.
