Getting married
It might be possible to be married at the Town Hall in Naestved
We recommend that you inquire with your respective authorities to make sure if a marriage contracted in Denmark would be valid in your own country.
Documents we will need to see:
- Birth certificate
- Certificate of civilian state - as documention for your civilian status
- Passport as well as valid visa or residence permit
- If your entry to Denmark does not require visa or residence permit your entry will be on the same terms as a tourist (3 months residence). In this case you have to show your travel tickets or similar papers as a documentation for your date of arrival in Denmark.
