Hi all, How to get marriage certificate from India? Me and my wife we both live in Canada and we only have the certificate (in English) issued by the local mosque in India. Will this be sufficient? We have a son who was born in Canada and has both our names on his birth certificate. Please help! Kubeir Kamal

A local mosque marriage certificate isn't the official document for a Muslim marriage in India — get it from the Waqf Board

If it’s a Muslim wedding, you would probably need a marriage certificate from Waqf board and that’s considered the final copy. Certificates given by local mosque is more like a nikah-nama.
