Posts from serafina in thread „Marriage blood test?“

    No testing required in Italy, but we have the formality of publicly announce the marriage in case anybody want's to contest it. It is basically a letter saying that John and Jane are getting married on [date of marriage]. It also contains their DOBs and where they were born. It has to stay on display for at least 15 days.


    In Italy, they are published in a window display in City Hall and on the City/Town institutional website.

    Even the consulate here publish marriage announcements on their website!


    I find it pretty annoying this day and age. When I got married here, I skipped that bit because I didn't want the whole Internet to know where I was and who I was getting married to.
