Is the Philippine marriage certificate valid in China? Can I divorce in China after marriage?

There is a very important reason for marriage in the Philippines, that is, marriage in the Philippines is not allowed to divorce, so many people who want to prove their love will want to register for marriage in the Philippines. In the Philippines, there are also many people who take part in work and get married to local people. However, in the absence of immigrants, what people will pay attention to is that if two people get married in the Philippines, will this marriage relationship be recognized in China? Here is an explanation for you.

Is the Philippine marriage certificate valid in China?

First of all, let's talk about the marriage system in the Philippines. The legal age for marriage in the Philippines is 16 years old, so everyone can choose to get married at this time, and notarization is required when getting married. After two people submit relevant information and have been reviewed, there is no objection after notarization for about ten days, or if someone goes back on his word, then the Philippine marriage certificate will be directly obtained, and then the wedding can be held.

Divorce is not allowed in the Philippines. Such behavior is illegal, so the price of divorce after marriage in the Philippines is very high.

After marriage in the Philippines, the proof of marriage relationship is in the Philippine system, not in the Chinese marriage system, so marriage relationship is not found in China. If the marriage certificate is notarized by the Chinese Embassy in the Philippines after marriage in the Philippines, the marriage relationship will be noted and can be queried. Therefore, China recognizes the validity of the marriage certificate, but it is not allowed to marry a 16-year-old child in China.

Can I get divorced in China after I get married?

The marriage relationship is recorded after notarization, but if you return to China to get married with foreigners under the age of 21, you cannot get a marriage certificate, because 16 years old is not allowed to get married in the legal age of marriage stipulated by our country. By the same token, if you get married in the Philippines, it is impossible to divorce in China. You need a government agency in the Philippines to make such an application, and you have to pay a greater price.

Notarization can only prove the existence of this marriage relationship and avoid bigamy.
