Swedish citizens residing in Shanghai, Anhui, Jiangsu and Zhejiang who are getting married can apply for a consideration of impediments to marriage and marriage certificate at the Consulate General in Shanghai. At the same time, the Consulate General issues a supplementary certificate.
If you are registered in Sweden, you must order a marriage certificate from the Swedish Tax Agency yourself. The certificate may need to be apostille stamped by a Notary Public in Sweden before departure. Please note that some Chinese provinces also require a 'Single certificate' in Chinese issued by the embassy or Consulate General.
Please note that the Consulate General issues marriage certificates only by appointment.
