💍 How to Translate Marriage Documents Without Visiting an Office

You did it—you got married online! Whether it was through a Zoom ceremony or another virtual platform, your wedding is official. But now you’re probably wondering what to do after virtual marriage, especially if you need to submit your marriage certificate to USCIS, a foreign government, or for travel purposes.

Don’t worry—you don’t need to visit an office to get your documents translated or certified. At Virtual Same Day Marriage, we help couples across the globe get marriage certificate translated and apostilled 100% online. It’s secure, fast, and legally valid for use with immigration, consular processing, and even international name changes.

Here’s exactly how the process works, what to expect, and how we make it simple from start to finish.

📑 What to Do After Virtual Marriage

After your virtual ceremony, you’ll receive an official marriage certificate—usually issued by a county like Utah County, which legally recognizes remote weddings.

But what comes next depends on your goals, such as:

  • Applying for a green card or fiancé visa

  • Registering your marriage in a foreign country

  • Getting a passport or name change

  • Planning a destination wedding celebration abroad

Each of these scenarios may require a certified translation, an apostille, or both.

✈️ When You’ll Need an Apostille

If you plan to use your U.S. marriage certificate outside the country (for legal or official purposes), you’ll probably need an apostille in addition to the translation.

Some common reasons:

  • Submitting your marriage to a foreign civil registry

  • Getting a residency or spousal visa abroad

  • Opening a joint bank account in a foreign country

  • Proving your marriage in a legal dispute or application

We handle the full apostille process for you—so you don’t have to navigate Secretary of State forms or embassy instructions.
