Certificate of No Record of Marriage Apostille

Do you need to apostille your Certificate of No Record of Marriage?

Are you planning to get married in another country?  Have you been asked to obtain a Certificate of No Record of Marriage apostille,  birth certificate apostille, and FBI background check apostille?

A certificate of no record of marriage is commonly referred to a Single Status Affidavit?  The most popular countries we can apostille a single status affidavit are for: Vietnam, Cuba, Columbia, Argentina, Mexico, Brazil, Chile, Peru, Greece, Germany,  and more.

Some countries may also refer to this document as:

  • Single Status Affidavit
  • Certificate of Freedom to Marry
  • Certificate of No Impediment for Marriage
  • Affidavit of Single Status
  • Affidavit of Marriageability
  • Certificate of No Public Record

Here is an example of a single status affidavit:

The first step is to contact the local County Clerk’s office to request a document that states you are currently not married (AKA: Single Status).  Some County Clerk offices may refer to this document as a “no record of marriage” instead of a “single status”.  Most all County Clerk offices can provide you this document so please be sure to speak to a supervisor if you are told otherwise.  A document issued from the County Clerk’s office does not require notarization.

If the County Clerk is unable to assist you and you are in the United States, you can use the sample above to write your own single status affidavit.  Basically, you are writing a sworn statement stating that you are currently not married to another person in the United States.  Be sure to have this document signed and notarized before you mail it in to our office. You should also check with the people requesting your single status if they will accept a sworn affidavit directly from you.

If you are outside of the United States, the local US Embassy or US Consulate office should be able to assist you in completing a single status and also having it signed and notarized.  Because you will be visiting  U.S. Federal Government office, this document can then only be apostilled through our Washington DC apostille office.

Apostille Single Status

Do you need an apostille on a Single Status?

Are you planning on getting married in another country?  If you are planning to get married in another country,  you will need to obtain an apostille on your single status affidavit.  A single status affidavit is a document that states you are currently not married to another person in the USA.

It’s basically a sworn statement.  The reason for this is to prevent individuals form getting married to more than one person at a given time.  You can obtain a single status affidavit by contacting the local County Clerk or you can draft your own document and have it notarized (see example below).  If you are outside of the USA, the local U.S. Embassy or U.S. Consulate office will also be able to assist you with the production and notarization of this document.

Some countries may also refer to this document as:
Single Status Affidavit
No Record of Marriage
Certificate of Freedom to Marry
Certificate of No Impediment for Marriage
Certificate of No Record – Marriage
Affidavit of Single Status
Affidavit of Marriageability
Certificate of No Public Record
Marriageability Affidavit
