- You don’t need to be in the same room — or even the same country

Is Online Marriage Legal in Hong Kong?
Here’s what you need to know: Hong Kong law does not currently issue online marriages. But many people living in Hong Kong choose to get married online through U.S. jurisdictions (like Utah) that legally allow and register virtual weddings.
Once married through our service, you’ll receive a U.S. marriage certificate, which you can then use for legal purposes in Hong Kong or abroad — including immigration, spousal benefits, and personal record updates.
For government or immigration use, many of our clients also request an Apostille and Certified Translations to make their documents valid internationally.
