Article 12- Determination of required age by local civil registrar
Upon receipt of such an application, the local civil registrar shall require the production of the
original birth certificates or, in the absence of such, the contracting parties' baptismal
certificates, or copies of such papers validly attested by the individuals holding custody of the
originals. This Article's certifications or certified copies of the papers do not need to be sworn
to, and they are exempt from the documentary stamp tax. The signature and official title of the
person who issues the certificate are adequate evidence of its authenticity. If one of the
contracting parties is unable to produce his birth or baptismal certificate, or a certified copy of
either, due to the destruction or loss of the original, or if it is demonstrated by an affidavit of
such party. Therefore if the person has not been recieved despite the fact that the person
having the costudy. He/ She must provide the current residence certificate or an instrument
drawn up and sworn to before the authorized to administer oaths atleast fifteen days prior to
the date of the application. Example of that is your entire name, address and citizenship of such
contracting party and his or her parents and shall be sworn by declarations of two witnesses of
legal age.
Article 13- If either of the contracting parties has been previously married, the applicant must
submit the deceased spouse's death certificate or the judicial decree of absolute divorce, or the
judicial decree of annulment or declaration of nullity of his or her previous marriage, instead of
the birth or baptismal certificate required in the preceding article. If the deceased spouse's
death certificate cannot be obtained, the party must file an affidavit detailing the
circumstances, his or her current civil status, and the deceased spouse's name and date of
death.
Article 14- If either or both of the contracting parties are between the ages of eighteen and
twenty-one and have not been emancipated by a previous marriage, they must exhibit to the
local civil registrar, in addition to the requirements of the preceding articles, the consent to
their marriage of their father, mother, surviving parent or guardian, or persons having legal
charge of them, in the order mentioned. Such approval must be expressed in writing by the
interested party before the appropriate local civil registrar, or in the form of an affidavit signed
in the presence of two witnesses and attested by any official authorized by law to administer
oaths. Both marriage license applications must include the personal manifestation.
Article 15- Any contractual party aged twenty-one to twenty-five is required to seek advice
from their parents or guardians regarding the proposed marriage. If they do not acquire such
advice, or if the opinion is negative, the marriage license will not be issued until three months
after the application has been published. The application for a marriage license must include a
sworn statement from the contracting parties stating that such advice was sought, as well as
any written advice provided, if any. This fact must be disclosed in the sworn declaration if the
parents or guardians decline to provide any counsel.
Article 16- In cases where parental consent or advice is required, in addition to the
requirements of the preceding articles, the party or parties in question must attach a certificate
issued by a priest, imam, or minister authorized to solemnize marriage under Article 7 of this
Code or a marriage counselor duly accredited by the proper government agency stating that the
contracting parties have undergone marriage counseling. Failure to attach the marital
counseling certificates will result in a three-month delay in the issue of the marriage license
after the application has been published. Issuing a marriage license during the banned time will
result in administrative sanctions for the issuing officer, but it will have no effect on the
marriage's legitimacy.
Article 17- The local civil registrar must write a notice that includes the full names and
addresses of the marriage license applicants, as well as any other information provided in the
applications. The notification must be put on a bulletin board outside the local civil registrar's
office for ten days in a conspicuous location within the building that is open to the public. This
notice will request that anyone with knowledge of a marriage impediment notify the local civil
registrar. Following the expiration of the publication time, the marriage license will be issued.
Article 18- If any impediment is brought to the attention of the local civil registrar, he shall
record the details of the impediment and his findings in the marriage license application, but
shall issue the license after the period of publication has expired, unless a competent court
orders otherwise at his or any interested party's request. There will be no filing fee for the
petition, and no bond will be required for the order's issuance.
Article 19- Before issuing a marriage license, the local civil registrar will require payment of the
fees set down by law or regulations. For the issue of said license, no other payment shall be
collected in the form of a fee or tax of any sort. It will, however, be provided free of charge to
destitute parties, defined as individuals who have no apparent means of income or whose
income is insufficient for their subsistence, as proven by their affidavit or oath before the local
civil registrar.
