Registration of Marriage (Melaka)

Yesterday, I dropped by at Seck Kia Eenh Temple to check out the registration procedure. The person in charge was not around but I met a helpful uncle. He told me the details of the registration in SKE.

1. Both the bridegroom-to-be & bride-to-be must present in person to collect the application form (Borang KC 02).
2. Photocopy 2 sets of (A4 size not to be cut) identity cards (Front & Back).
3. Photocopy 2 sets of (A4 size not to be cut) birth certificates
4. Attached a passport-size coloured photographs each to the completed form & bring it to the Commissioner of Oath. With his / her 'legalised' signature, it means that he / she is the witness to see the bride and groom sign the form & also to confirm that the photostate IC is the same as the actual IC.
5. Photocopy a set of the completed form.
6. Photocopy 2 sets (A4 size, not to be cut) of the respective identity cards of two witnesses who must be Malaysia Citizen above 21 years old.
7. Bring all the above mentioned documents to SKE & the waiting period is 3 weeks from the date of submission. Please note that SKE's monk only holds the registration every Wednesday's morning.

After our breakfast this morning, we went to 'Wang Lao Sian Si' Temple to check out their ruling for ROM. Basically, the documents needed are as per above mentioned. The only difference is the couple needs to bring the documents along prior getting the application form (Borang KC 02). The registration fee is RM 20. For convenience of the couple, they may choose to do the submission on every Saturday. Reason being is that the Commissioner of Oath officer will be there from 1-3pm. Again, if there is no objection from any party within 21 days, then the bridegroom-to-be & bride-to-be can have the registration carried out on the Sunday.

At least we are cleared with the registration day from the respective temple. We will need the get all the necessary documents for the submission. Guess we will choose the later one as we do not need to go to search for COO again.
