In Denmark, no certificate of no impediment to marriage from the country of origin is required. <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">However, there have been significant changes since 01.01.2019. The Danish government wants to actively combat &#8220;marriages of convenience&#8221; with a new law. Documents are no longer checked by the respective registry offices, but by a central authority. The newly created Agency for Family Law (Familieretshuset) checks the documents and issues a Danish certificate of matrimonial capacity. Only with this document can the respective registry office set a date for the marriage. The examination of the documents by the Family Law Agency takes 5 to 8 working days. The Danish examiner can refuse a marriage if there is reasonable suspicion of a &#8220;marriage of convenience&#8221;, request additional documents and ask the couple to attend an interview. The fee of <strong style=\"color: #d90922;\">\u20ac285<\/strong> for checking the documents is payable in advance and will not be refunded in the event of a refusal. So-called &#8220;marriages of convenience&#8221; are therefore no longer possible.        <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"l-section wpb_row us_custom_60e9caca us_animate_this height_auto\"><div class=\"l-section-h i-cf\"><div class=\"g-cols vc_row via_grid cols_1 laptops-cols_inherit tablets-cols_inherit mobiles-cols_1 valign_top type_default stacking_default\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"w-hwrapper valign_baseline align_center\" style=\"--hwrapper-gap:1.2rem\"><div class=\"wpb_text_column us_custom_5d7c844f\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Getting married in Denmark <span style=\"color: #d90922; font-family: whisper; font-size: 4rem;\">&#8211; how it works<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_medium\"><\/div><div class=\"wpb_text_column us_custom_153e8239 us_animate_this\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8220;Marriage made easy&#8221; &#8211; that is our motto.
