Document background
An Affidavit in Support of Marriage is required when couples seek to register their marriage in Singapore. This document serves as a formal declaration verifying the parties' eligibility to marry and absence of legal impediments. The affidavit must comply with Singapore's legal framework, particularly the Women's Charter and Registration of Marriages Act. It includes personal details of the deponent, statements about the intended marriage parties, and relevant supporting information. This document is particularly crucial when one or both parties are foreigners or when additional verification of marriage eligibility is required.
