Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the strongest evidence in customary-marriage registration?
- Original contract witnesses (legally strongest), wedding-ceremony witnesses, photos and video, the other-party acknowledgment (settles the case), and continuing presumptions like joint living and birth of children.
- What fines apply on registration?
- Fines are imposed on the husband, wife, witnesses, and officiant. Vary by case and paid upon registration ruling. Consider them a necessary cost to remedy the legal situation.
- When is quick registration advised?
- Upon having children (to protect their rights), upon a spouse's death, upon separation, when official documents are needed, or in any legal dispute. Delay makes proof harder (witness deaths, document loss).
