The Ministry of the Interior eliminated the obligation to petition the marriage officer in the province and district where one of the spouses resides in marriage proceedings. With the new regulation, applications can now be made to any marriage officer without the condition of residence and address.
The signature of the Minister of the Interior, Süleyman Soylu, of the General Directorate of Population and Citizenship Affairs sent a circular on “Marriage Procedures” to 81 provincial governments. The circular said that marriage procedures were carried out by the marriage officer in the place of residence of one of the spouses, a situation that created difficulties for citizens whose domiciles reside in different provinces or districts and the making of false statements.
In the circular, it was stated that after the Central Population Management System (MERNIS) and the Identity Exchange System (KPS) determined whether there were disabilities in the marriage, marriage officers issued a Marriage License and other documents related to the marriage.
In the circular it was pointed out that considering communication, transport, and mobility of the urban and interurban population, it is not harmful to go to the marriage officer in the place where the people are and carry out the marriage procedures.
A MARRIAGE APPLICATION CAN BE MADE TO THE DESIRED PROVINCE AND DISTRICT
The details of the new regulation in the circular sent with 81 are the following:
Requests for marriage from a woman or a man will no longer be made depending on the boundaries of the marriage officer where you live. Couples who want to marry may apply to any marriage officer (excluding marriage requests made to mukhtars) without the requirement of residence and other address.
THE BUREAUCRACY WILL DECREASE
By regulating that marriage application procedures are carried out by any marriage officer, both bureaucratic and service provision processes will be facilitated and the burden on the citizen will be reduced.
