- The Law Commission of India, in its 287th report, has recommended compulsory registration of marriage between Non-Residential Indians/Overseas Citizens of India and Indian nationals.
- It proposes making these changes by revising the pending Registration of Marriage of Non-Resident Indians Bill, 2019 (NRI Bill).
- This report also recommends a new procedure for registering marriages with NRIs.
- It includes giving notice to the district Marriage Officer which will then be displayed for 30 days for anyone who would want to object to the wedding.
- Along with the expansion of the NRI Bill, 2019, the Law Commission recommends amending the Passport Act, 1967, to require a declaration of marital status in a person’s passport.
