How to get married in China?

Note: The following only applies to Sino-foreign marriages. Local-level marriage registration offices are the governmental bodies responsible for legally uniting under Chinese law man and woman as husband and wife. IE!b(?_[eF

1qX;?6E\7\E Step 1: Submit the Required Documents
MpK5Ytq
*^'N:M(|:V8GT3J3e The Sino-foreign couple must go together, in person to the appropriate marriage registration office and submit a (1) completed marriage registration application form (available at the marriage registration office). (The appropriate marriage registration office will be the one in the jurisdiction in which the Chinese partner is registered [the location of the hukou]. )Mb-W\Lod(X*M

Together with the application form, the couple must submit a number of other documents: mY3I Kp]4^ B%V4C3b(^

(12) A certification of marriageability ]3bB^5\hX4N

Item 12 requires further explanation. Basically, the marriage registration office needs a form from the foreign partner's home government stating he/she is not already married in his/her home country. Every foreign government has its own version of this type of form with its own requirements for obtaining one. Couples will need to check the embassy website of the foreign partner's home country in China for details on how to obtain this kind of certification. (Chinese translations must accompany foreign-language documents.)
{![4~@7C!b
$\JC5]m:\Yz Note: Application requirements may vary from office to office. When an individual visits the appropriate marriage registration office to pick up an application form and find out which local hospital(s) the foreign partner must get checked at, he/she should also check to see if the office's requirements differ from those listed here. *iJ)U&}6Xgf'v K

Step 2: Wait for the Good News[]n5Jw%Z:~ B
After the establishment of the new marriage law, it now takes the marriage registration office about an hour or so to review the submitted documents and approve of the application. ei"^_(g\E

Once the marriage registration office approves of the application and registers the marriage, it will issue a marriage certificate to be picked up by the couple.

I'm old enough to get married. However, I have still been alone . Where is my girlfriend ? Who is my wife? Who can tell me?

lol

there're a lot of chinese girs looking for foreign guys. they'd find their luck in China as long as they are serious about LOVE. and I say, a lot of foreigners are more serious about love and marriage than chinese, I dont know, just feel that way. they need to learn great chinese to deal with their parents. that helps a lot, you'll find it usefull for fear they give you 2 pressures :L
