FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is getting married online legal?

Yes. As of 2023, getting married online is 100% legal in the US through the state of Utah. People around the world can now get married completely online — there's no need to put ink to paper or step foot in a courthouse to get a legal US marriage certificate.

Who can use E-Residence's remote marriage service?

Any consenting adult who is (1) 18 or older, (2) not currently married, and (3) hasn't been divorced in the last 60 days. All you need is a valid government ID, a webcam, and a stable internet connection.

How does getting married online work?

Couples complete the entire process online — from anywhere in the world. It's paper-free and typically takes between 10 and 30 days from application to receiving your legal US marriage certificate.

First, using our secure ID verification system, our concierge guides you through obtaining your license. Next, pick a time and date, and we'll match you with one of our legally certified US officiants. Finally, get married via webcam from the comfort of your own home. The actual ceremony takes less than fifteen minutes.

Within 24 hours of your online ceremony, you receive a digital copy of your US marriage certificate, with a paper copy mailed shortly after.

Do my partner and I have to be in the same location?

No. We've successfully and legally married thousands of couples where one partner is in one country and the other is thousands of miles away.

Can you provide an apostille seal for international couples?

An apostille ensures your marriage certificate is considered legal, authentic, and acceptable in any country that signed the Hague Apostille Convention of 1961. We offer apostille with courier delivery as an add-on at checkout — add it if you want your marriage registered or recognized outside the United States.

How much does it cost to get married through E-Residence?

Our Global Wedding WebSuite package — valid marriage license, online ceremony, and a legal US marriage certificate delivered worldwide — starts at €399 with 10–30 day processing. For couples on a deadline, our Impatient Newlyweds package at €899 fast-tracks the entire process to 72 hours. See the pricing section above for full details.

Do you offer rush processing?

Yes. Our Impatient Newlyweds package (€899) gets you legally married within 72 hours end-to-end — priority license processing, express ceremony scheduling, same-day certificate issuance, and a dedicated rush coordinator. Money-back guarantee if we don't deliver within 72 hours.

What is your satisfaction guarantee?

Full refund up until your marriage license has been registered, which normally happens within 48 hours of payment. Partial refunds depending on circumstances for the next 30 days. No refunds after 30 days of payment.

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes. We support a range of payment methods including Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) providers such as Klarna. Our goal is to make getting married as affordable and accessible as possible for couples around the world.

How is this different from a regular online notary?

Online notarization (RON) is for authenticating documents you already have. Our remote marriage service handles the entire marriage process: obtaining the license, conducting the ceremony, and issuing the legal US marriage certificate. If you need standalone notarization, see our Notarization online (RON) service.
