Planning an inter-caste or interfaith marriage in Mumbai? At Mumbai Court Marriage, we provide comprehensive legal assistance to help couples from different castes, communities, or religions register their marriage smoothly and legally under the Special Marriage Act, 1954.

We specialize in quick, confidential, and legally sound marriage registration services, offering complete guidance on documentation, affidavit preparation, and registrar appointments.

What is an Inter-Caste Marriage?

An inter-caste marriage is a union between two individuals belonging to different castes, communities, or religions. In India, such marriages are legally recognized and protected under the Special Marriage Act, 1954.

Unlike traditional marriages governed by personal religious laws, inter-caste marriages are registered as civil marriages under this secular law, ensuring equal rights and legal protection for both partners.

Why Register Your Inter-Caste Marriage?

Registering your inter-caste marriage is essential for:

  • Obtaining a government-recognized marriage certificate

  • Protecting legal rights of both partners under Indian law

  • Facilitating passport, visa, and immigration processes

  • Enabling name change, joint bank accounts, and property transactions

  • Securing inheritance, insurance, and other legal benefits

  • Accessing government schemes like the Dr. Ambedkar Foundation's incentive for inter-caste couples

Legal Framework: Special Marriage Act, 1954

The Special Marriage Act (SMA) is a secular law that allows marriage between two consenting adults, regardless of their caste, religion, or community. This Act provides complete legal protection and is specifically designed for inter-caste, interfaith, and civil marriages.

Key Features:

  • No religious conversion required

  • Equal rights to both partners
