Civil ceremony for foreign citizens

Foreign citizens can validly marry in Italy, according to the Italian civil rite or with a religious rite valid for civil effects, according to the cults admitted in the State. Since the conditions for contracting marriage are regulated by the national law of the country of origin, the fundamental document for the celebration of the foreigner's marriage in Italy is the authorization from the competent Authority of the Country of origin or equivalent documents issued on the basis of specific international agreements or conventions . The authorization must attest that there are no impediments to marriage under the laws of the country of origin
The marriage clearance can be issued:
from the Embassy or Consulate of the foreign State of belonging in Italy (the signature must be legalized in the Prefecture for the States that have not adhered to the Conventions that provide for the exemption) by the competent Authority of the State of belonging, in the event that the law of the foreign State allows it (documents issued abroad must be translated into Italian and legalized by the Italian Authority in the same foreign state).

Future foreign spouses not domiciled or resident in Italy, instead of requesting marriage banns, will have to sign a report at the Viareggio civil registry office declaring that there are no impediments of kinship, affinity, adoption or affiliation between them, nor any other impediments to marriage provided for by the Civil Code. Foreign citizens who do not know the Italian language must be assisted, both for the declaration of absence of impediments, and during the celebration of the marriage itself, by an interpreter who knows the Italian language well, who must take an oath before the Civil Status Officer of good and faithfully carry out the task entrusted to him. The presence of the interpreter is necessary even if the witnesses do not know the Italian language.

According to the European convention (with the exclusion of Great Britain and Scandinavian countries) the marriage, once celebrated, is automatically transcribed also in the respective countries of origin.
For other countries, a plurilingual marriage certificate can be requested to allow the transcription in a reasonably short time.
Necessary documents: Birth document, valid passport, residence certificate, authorization issued by your Consulate (or Embassy), valid identity documents for witnesses.
