Step 1: Document Preparation

Begin by obtaining an original and valid marriage certificate. Ensure that the certificate is free from alterations or discrepancies, as these could cause complications during the attestation process.

Step 2: Notarization

The first step in the attestation process is to have your marriage certificate notarized by a recognized notary public. Notarization verifies the authenticity of the document and provides a foundational level of verification.
