Once you have decided to get married in Vancouver, one member of the couple getting married needs to apply for a Marriage License with a Marriage License Issuer. The marriage license is valid for up to three months from the date issued and costs $100 CDN dollars (cash).
When we applied for the marriage certificate, we supplied the following information for each person:
- Passport
- Full legal name
- Marriage status
- Current address
- Phone number
- Birth date / location
Please remember to have all the information for EACH PERSON before visiting the Marriage License issuer. You can review the PDF form used to obtain a marriage license. You can also search the database of Marriage License Issuers.

How are you having trouble? For me it was open and shut! Each of us had a Visa, we arrived and entered the country.
