Marriage Certificate Translation in New Jersey
A New Jersey marriage is recorded by the local registrar of the municipality that issued the licence, and certified copies come from that registrar or from the state Office of Vital Statistics and Registry in Trenton.
Most of our New Jersey marriage work runs the other way: foreign marriage certificates translated for I-130 spousal petitions and the interviews that follow at the Newark and Mount Laurel field offices. Originals can be dropped off at our office in Edgewater.

Korean marriage records in Bergen County
Fort Lee and Palisades Park, a short drive from our office, sit at the centre of one of the largest Korean communities in the United States. Korea does not issue a stand-alone marriage certificate in the American sense: the marriage is entered in the family relation register, and what an applicant orders is a Marriage Relation Certificate.
Since 2016 that certificate has come in a general version, which shows only the current marriage, and a detailed version, which shows every marriage and divorce on record. A filing that has to establish that earlier marriages ended needs the detailed one, and it is easy to order the general one by mistake.
