Read more in-depth information about the Apostille Service

This is a service we provide after your wedding in Denmark.

There is no time frame on when you can take our Apostille Service; it can be taken immediately after your wedding or years after.

It is for those couples who will be using their wedding with their respective governments after their wedding, e.g. to register the marriage or to apply for a spousal visa, and will need that extra layer of ‘legalisation’ on their marriage certificate.

We do not have to have helped you with your wedding in Denmark for you to take this service.

You send your marriage certificate/s to our Apostille team (we will give you information on how to do this)
Once we receive your certificate/s we will then hand deliver them to the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs will check the information on your certificates after which they will affix the Apostille ‘stamp’ onto the back of your certificate/s
We will then return your certificate/s back to you at an address of your choice* via a tracked courier service

*The Apostille Service fee only covers the return to one address. An extra fee is incurred to cover the courier costs back to 2 separate addresses.

Minh Thu Rascalou

A huge thank you to GettingMarriedInDenmark for making everything so easy for us. From the beginning, they were super helpful, kind, and really took care of everything. Thanks to them, our wedding went smoothly and stress-free.
They also suggested Ærøskøbing as a place to get married and wow, what a beautiful island. We completely fell in love with it. The whole experience was magical.

The officer who married us was also incredibly sweet and welcoming. We will never forget her and the witnesses who took the pictures.

We’re so happy we found you. Thank you again for everything!

My now-husband and I were referred to Getting Married in Denmark by close friends—another international couple—who had an amazing experience with them. At the time, he was living in Germany (originally from Spain), and I was still in the U.S. The distance, visa limitations, and the strain of a long-distance relationship made it clear: something had to change. We knew right away that getting married through Getting Married in Denmark was the best way to finally be together and begin our lives side by side.

From the start, the Getting Married in Denmark team impressed us with their professionalism and deep knowledge of the process. What initially seemed overwhelming—navigating different country requirements, government documents, and tight timelines—became manageable thanks to their clear guidance and constant support. A special thank you to Maria and Erma, who were absolutely incredible. We had no idea how specific the Danish government is when it comes to paperwork and things like passport photos, but the team caught everything.

While the process did involve a lot of back-and-forth, it was well worth it. Their expertise and attention to detail ensured we didn’t miss a single step. We chose to upgrade to the Complete Package and went with a private registrar to fast-track things. This allowed us to get our first-choice location in beautiful Copenhagen, and more importantly, to marry before my Schengen visa expired. Having our families there made it even more magical.

Getting Married in Denmark didn’t just help with the legal side—they provided recommendations for accommodations, restaurants, photographers, florists, and more. Their help took so much pressure off and let us focus on enjoying the moment. The entire experience felt personal, efficient, and genuinely supportive.

Looking back, we can say with full confidence: working with Getting Married in Denmark was worth every penny. Their quick communication, thoughtful approach, and dedication made us feel like we were in the best hands. Thanks to them, we were able to take a huge step in our lives, move to a new country together, and finally close the chapter on long-distance.

Now, we’re enjoying married life and are already planning a larger celebration in Spain! We’re so grateful to Getting Married in Denmark for making our dream a reality. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

— J&A, a very happy international couple ❤️
