Individuals residing in the United States who need to obtain their marriage certificate can request it online through someone you hire or a family member, who must have a notarial power of attorney to carry out the process.
The steps your representative should follow are as follows:
- They must go to the National Registry of the Municipality where the marriage was registered in Honduras.
- They must provide the full names and identity cards of both spouses.
- Then, they must request a certified copy of the Marriage Record from the local authorities or an official registrar who will sign and seal the marriage copy.
- It is very important that the marriage record copy is:
- Authenticated by the General Secretariat of the National Registry of Persons in Tegucigalpa.
- Apostilled by the Secretariat of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, located in downtown Tegucigalpa, next to the National Congress.
- Finally, the person who carried out this process can send you the legalized marriage copy by email.
We inform you that you may be able to find the Marriage Record copy in the Central Archive of the National Registry of Persons located in Tegucigalpa.
The process is completed in one day, and the cost of the apostille is L150.00, paid via a TGR-1 receipt in the name of the applicant at any bank.
Honduran Marriage Certificate
If you need the marriage certificate from the nearest Honduran Consulate, you can visit the location and request a certified copy of the marriage certificate. They will take your personal information and inform you of how many days it will take to complete the process.
Please note that the process may take time due to the high demand for this service, and the delivery of the legalized certificate in physical form to the Honduran consulate in the USA may take up to a month.
Honduras RNP Marriage Certificate
The document known as the Marriage Record Copy is issued by the National Registry of Persons (RNP), where the marriage legally took place, as marriages in religious institutions do not have legal validity for the state.
At the consulate, you must request the certified copy of the marriage record with the original seal and signature of the registrar from the RNP issuing office.
We also inform you of two important points to keep in mind:
- The RNP has two variations of the marriage certificate. For immigration purposes, the Immigrant Visa Unit requires the “Marriage Record.”
- Documents such as personal files, life sheets, literals, certifications, and their annotations are not accepted for visa processing.
Certification of Honduran Marriage Certificate
We inform you that if you reside in the USA and request the marriage certificate to carry out any procedure within the United States, you must provide a notarized power of attorney to a trusted person to request the required document. However, offices have the right to request a notarized document from the applicant granting power of attorney. People requesting the certificate can obtain the notarized declaration at any Honduran consulate and send the certified forms by mail to their representatives or trusted persons in Honduras.
Alternative documents you can receive at the consulate include marriage records prior to 1984, which are usually handwritten with the RNP seal or logo on the document. Since the year 2000, handwritten records are no longer available as the records were typed.
