Hello ! Please help me to understand the following doubts:
1. Is it important to register the foreign wedding of Indian couple in India? wondering if Indian govt. or Private organizations in INDIA like banks, visa offices or any other such institutions recognizes such wedding that took place out side India and registered outside India ( in USA, that was done in Christian customs rather Hindu).
2. We are confused since now my brother and his newly wed bride has moved from USA to INDIA for good but they got married in USA therefore for opening a bank account or ration card, election card or Pan card in India may require to submit marriage certificate. Wondering if USA marriage certificate would be recognized during such official dealings.
If Indian constitutions or Govt. Organization recognizes USA marriage certificate in India then still somewhere we are worried if in future not having his wedding registered in India would cause some unpredicted problems. So thinking of getting his wedding registed in India too.
3. Further we are not clear if it would it be a problem if my brother registers his wedding in India based on his Indian wedding date which is different than his wedding conducted in USA?
Therefore, critical to know what to do - should we get his wedding re- registered in India or not? The Indian wedding was done in proper way - like invitation cards where printed, photos and videos where produced.
Please reply,
Look forward to hear from you
Thank you
Savdeep
