Legal Aspects and Recognition of Marriage in Russia

According to Georgian law, marriage registration is not available to all foreign couples. Minors (under 18), legally incapacitated individuals, and persons staying illegally in the country cannot get married. Marriage is also prohibited if the partners are blood relatives. Adoptive parents and adopted children, as well as individuals who are already officially married, are also not allowed to legalize family relationships.

In Russia, a marriage certificate issued by the Georgian Ministry of Justice is recognized without an apostille. Both countries are parties to the Minsk Convention, which removes the requirement for document legalization. It is sufficient to translate the certificate from Georgian into Russian. A notary’s stamp and signature will confirm the accuracy of the translation.

To legalize a marriage at Georgian Ministry of Justice institutions, Russian citizens must follow a specific procedure.

How Official Marriage Registration for Russian Citizens Takes Place
