Need an Unmarried Certificate for Study, Work, or Marriage Abroad? Here’s Everything You Must Know!
An Unmarried Certificate (also known as a Single Status Certificate or Certificate of No Marriage) is an official document issued by the government confirming that a person has never been married.
It is often required for:
-
Studying abroad
-
Getting married overseas
-
Immigration purposes
-
Visa applications
-
Employment abroad
At Ali Law Associates Faisalabad, we help you get your Unmarried Certificate issued, verified by MOFA (Ministry of Foreign Affairs Pakistan), and Apostilled (for countries under the Hague Convention).
π How to Get an Unmarried Certificate in Pakistan?
Step-by-Step Process:
-
Apply to Local Union Council
Submit a written application to the Union Council in your area, along with your CNIC and other required documents. -
Verification Process
The Union Council will verify your marital status by checking local marriage records. -
Issuance of Unmarried Certificate
After verification, they will issue the official “Certificate of Single Status” or “Unmarried Certificate.” -
Notarization
Get the Unmarried Certificate notarized by a licensed Notary Public. -
MOFA Attestation
Submit the notarized certificate to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Pakistan for official attestation. -
Apostille (if needed)
If your destination country is a signatory of the Hague Apostille Convention (like many European countries), you will need the document to be Apostilled through MOFA.
π‘οΈ Why MOFA Attestation and Apostille Are Important?
-
MOFA Attestation proves the documentβs authenticity for use abroad.
-
Apostille makes the document legally acceptable in over 100+ Hague Convention member countries without any further embassy legalization.
Without these, your certificate may not be accepted by foreign authorities!
