term \"station\" on marriage certificate from india position or title, as in `station in life` Explanation: This is an idea out of the top of my head, but it could mean the person´s official title or position. You might need to check with someone who really knows Indian English, but it rings a bell from my distant past! Would that fit in your context? |

term \"station\" on marriage certificate from india police station Explanation: In India, civil weddings are governed by the provisions of The Special Marriage Act (1954). Under the Act, there’s a 30 day residency requirement, which means that either the bride or the groom has to be living in India for at least 30 days prior to applying to the local registry office to get married. For foreigners, this is evidenced by a certificate from the local police station. https://www.tripsavvy.com/legal-requirements-to-get-married-in-india-1539305 |

Reference: Ref. - Police Station Reference information: https://transferwise.com/au/blog/getting-married-in-india-gu... What are the legal requirements to get married in India? The Special Marriage Act of 1954 dictates a 30-day requirement for residency in India, which means that at least one party of the wedding has to be living in India for at least 30 days before applying to get married. ***You’ll have to prove it from a certificate issued by the local police station.*** An expat or foreign national marrying an Indian citizen will need some additional paperwork, but doesn’t need to become a citizen of India in order to get married. Additionally, India recognises foreign marriage certificates, so if you’ve gotten married abroad, you won’t need to legally register your marriage in India. Non-resident couples might choose to get legally married in their home country and then have a ceremonial blessing in India instead, as that is simpler. |
