NOTICE(S) OF MARRIAGE FEE
You will each need to pay a fee per Notice when
you attend your appointment at the registration
office.
For Notice(s) under the ‘Referral and Investigation
Scheme, Immigration Act 2014’ an additional fee
per Notice is payable if you or your partner is a
national of a country outside EEA or Switzerland.
Each party must provide a passport size
photograph.
IMMIGRATION CONTROL
If one of you is subject to immigration control, for
example staying in the UK on a visa, then you
may need further documents and to follow special
procedures. You may need to make an appointment
to give your Notice at a designated office (in
Lincolnshire, this office is based in Lincoln). Notices
for marriage are also able to be taken at our
Boston and Grantham offices. If any documents
are not in the English language, please provide
a certified translation. You must bring original
documents with you to your appointment as
photocopies will not be accepted.
If either party to be married or form a civil
partnership is a citizen of a country outside of the
EEA the Home Office may increase this Notice
period to between 28 and 70 days under the
‘Referral and Investigation Scheme, Immigration Act
2014’.
If after giving your Notice(s) you decide to change
the chosen venue or amend the ceremony date
more than one year after the date of your Notice(s),
new Notice(s) will have to be given.
The fee for the ceremony is separate to your
Notice(s) and will depend on the type of ceremony
and the date.
