A Marriage Affidavit is a mandatory legal document required as part of the marriage registration process in Belgium. This sworn declaration is particularly crucial when one or both parties are foreign nationals or when the marriage has international elements. The document must be prepared in accordance with Belgian Civil Code requirements and local municipal regulations, typically requiring official authentication by a notary public or relevant authority. The Marriage Affidavit includes detailed personal information about both parties, declarations regarding their civil status, confirmation of their legal capacity to marry, and statements confirming the absence of any legal impediments to the marriage. It may need to be produced in multiple languages depending on the Belgian region where the marriage will be registered (French, Dutch, or German) and must be accompanied by supporting documentation such as birth certificates, proof of identity, and civil status certificates.
