Marriage in Northern Cyprus

Marriage in Northern Cyprus:
In Northern Cyprus, among Turkish families, life and social interactions revolve around family values. As a result, they spend most of their time gathering with extended family, attending parties, or participating in weddings.
Marriage in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus is a family event. Therefore, all relatives, from aunts and uncles to cousins, take part in wedding preparations, and sometimes, elder family members provide a furnished house for the young couple to start their life together. This house is usually prepared by the groom's family. In Northern Cyprus, families generally offer financial and emotional support to newlyweds for an extended period.
In this country, like many other traditional societies, young people need the approval of their families for marriage. However, the governmental laws regarding marriage in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus are similar to the laws in England. Hence, marriage documents issued in this country are accepted worldwide. This, along with the unparalleled natural beauty of this island and the relatively lower cost of weddings compared to other places around the world, has made it an attractive destination and a dream location for couples from all over the world to have their most magnificent day of life recorded here.
This island is the birthplace of Aphrodite and the place where Richard the Lion heart got married, adding to the mythical charm of this island and making it a dreamy place for wedding celebrations or honeymoons.
Some legal points regarding marriage documents in Northern Cyprus are that these documents are issued and registered in English as well. This is an attractive and helpful feature for tourists who wish to register their marriage in an international language.
In this regard, the important points to consider are as follows:

• They need to have valid and recognized identification documents.
• The single status of both partners must be certified by the country of their residence at the time of marriage.
