The Affidavit of No Marriage (CENOMAR) is a fundamental legal document in Philippine civil registration and documentation systems. It serves as a sworn statement where an individual declares their single status and absence of any previous marriages. This document is commonly required for marriage license applications, international visa processing, foreign employment, and various legal procedures where proof of single status is necessary. The format and content are governed by Philippine civil law, particularly the Family Code of the Philippines and related administrative regulations. The document must be properly notarized to be considered valid and may require additional authentication steps when used internationally. Its primary purpose is to provide legal verification of an individual's unmarried status, which is particularly important in preventing cases of bigamy and ensuring compliance with marriage laws.
