Same-day certificate in 2-3 hours at Rohini Court Sec-14 (near Sector-18 Metro) and Tis Hazari Court. Complete process, documents, fees ₹6,100, eligibility, and FAQs under the Special Marriage Act 1954 — a practical guide by Delhi's #1 marriage consultant.
Court Marriage in India is a civil registration process under the Special Marriage Act, 1954 (SMA). It provides a legally valid government-issued marriage certificate without any religious ceremony. It is applicable to couples of any religion — Hindu, Muslim, Christian, Sikh, Jain, Buddhist, Parsi — as well as inter-religion couples. In Delhi, court marriages are conducted at Rohini Court (Sector-14, Delhi 110085) and Tis Hazari Court. Our complete court marriage service is available for ₹6,100.
In 2026, same-day court marriage is also possible in Delhi through specific provisions of the Special Marriage Act and tatkal procedures. The standard process requires a 30-day notice period, but in specific cases same-day registration can be arranged. To use this option, it is important to understand the nuances of the 30-day notice period waiver.

To register a court marriage under the Special Marriage Act 1954, the following basic conditions must be fulfilled:
Foreign nationals and NRI couples can also register a court marriage under the Special Marriage Act — they simply need to provide additional documents (passport, embassy NOC, single status certificate). For a detailed comparison, see our Arya Samaj vs Court Marriage blog post.
The following documents are required for court marriage — separately for each partner:
For a detailed documents guide, see our Court Marriage Documents Checklist 2026 blog post — every document's format, validity, and common mistakes are explained there.
A court marriage in Delhi is completed in 4 main steps:
First, we verify your documents either over WhatsApp or during an office visit. We check whether the Aadhaar address is in Delhi, whether the age proof is valid, and whether the photographs are in the correct format. This consultation is 100% FREE. Walk-ins are also welcome at our office at Rohini Court Sec-14 — no appointment needed.
Under the Special Marriage Act, a "Notice of Intended Marriage" must be filed with the Marriage Officer (SDM). This notice is made public for 30 days by being displayed on the Rohini Court notice board. This does not mean the notice is sent to your home address. Your family will not know about it unless they personally check the court notice board.
To file the notice, our team accompanies you to the SDM office, fills the application form, and submits it after getting the affidavits signed. Read our blog on when the 30-day notice period can be skipped.
After the notice is published, a 30-day waiting period applies. During this time, if anyone raises a valid legal objection (for example, a previous marriage still being legally intact, or incorrect age proof), the Marriage Officer conducts an inquiry. The practical reality is that no objections are received in 99% of cases.
Tatkal Court Marriage: If you need a same-day certificate, our tatkal court marriage service uses specific procedures — the emergency provisions under the Special Marriage Rules. The cost is ₹12,000 (higher than the regular ₹6,100). This is the perfect option for NRI couples, visa urgencies, and foreign travel cases.
After 30 days (or the same day in tatkal cases), the couple and 3 witnesses sign the declaration before the Marriage Officer. The declaration contains 3 statements:
The Marriage Officer takes the signatures of both partners and the witnesses, and then issues the Marriage Certificate (Form-V). This certificate is an official document of the Delhi Government — valid for a lifetime and accepted worldwide. You can collect certified copies the very same day.

There are 2 main court marriage venues in Delhi. Both follow legally identical procedures — the only differences lie in convenience and turnaround time:
Address: Rohini Court Complex, Sector-14, near Sector-18 Metro Station (Yellow Line), Delhi 110085.
Rohini Court is the most convenient option for residents of North Delhi (Rohini, Pitampura, Shalimar Bagh, Dwarka), Noida, and Outer Delhi. It is just a 5-minute walk from Sector-18 Metro Station. This is also our primary location for same-day registrations. Weekdays see less crowd and parking is available.
Tis Hazari is accessible for residents of Central Delhi, South Delhi, and Old Delhi. The crowd is heavier here, but same-day service is still available. The court is within walking distance of Tis Hazari Metro Station (Red Line).
We are fully operational at both locations — you can choose based on your convenience. View office details and exact addresses on our contact page.
Over 9+ years of experience, we have seen the following common mistakes — please avoid them:
Yes — under specific provisions, same-day court marriage is possible in Delhi, especially at Rohini Court. For this, we use our tatkal court marriage service.

No, not unless the couple chooses to inform them. The notice is displayed on the Rohini Court notice board only, and no physical letter is sent to your home address. The marriage certificate is issued only to the couple. Privacy is 100% maintained in inter-caste and love marriage cases.
The Court Marriage Certificate (Form-V) is accepted worldwide — for passport applications, visas, joint bank accounts, property registration, insurance, and embassy verification. It is valid everywhere, has lifetime validity, and never expires.
No — court marriage is purely a civil registration. No pandit, qazi, or priest is required. If you also want a religious ceremony, an Arya Samaj marriage + court registration combo is available.
Yes. Court marriage under the Special Marriage Act is the only legally recognised option for inter-religion couples. Both partners can retain their own religion — no conversion is required. Detailed guide: Inter-Caste Love Marriage Delhi.
NRI couples need additional documents — passport, embassy NOC (Single Status Certificate or No Impediment Certificate), and a notarised copy of the foreign passport. The process is the same, although the timeline may be 1–2 days longer. Embassy assistance is included in our NRI marriage service at ₹7,000.
