I got married in Denmark through a civil marriage and the certificate is properly apostilled, so technically it should already be valid in India.

But Indian authorities keep asking for extra “Indian validation” like:

- embassy stamp

- local registration

The Indian Embassy said they cannot attest the Danish marriage certificate because it is already apostilled.

For people who got married abroad:

- how did you get Indian authorities to accept it in practice?

- did you register it in India afterward?

- what actually worked?

I understand the legal position already. I’m trying to understand the practical solution.

Many thanks
