Marriage in Canada and Korea: Info needed

[MJPNHL]

Hey all!

I have some questions here regarding marriage in Canada and in Korea. Any help from people who have done this would be much appreciated!

My fiancee (Korean) and I (Canadian), both currently residing in Korea, will get married in Canada one week prior to our marriage in Korea.

1. Canada
- I have read in Canada to apply for marriage only takes 30 mins and it lasts 90 days. True?
- How long does it take to get our marriage certificate in Canada?
- Can my fiance travel with me to Canada to get married under a tourist visa?
- Is it more cost effective to transfer our Canadian marriage certificate over to Korea, rather than having a marriage certificate from both countries? Is it legal to have a marriage certificate from both countries?

Any other general information that I have not considered would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you so much for any help you provide!

It depends on the province. Google it,

yes

You'll have to research that. Costs are different per country and province.

Is it legal to have a marriage certificate from both countries?

As far as Canada is concerned yes. Maybe in S. Korea no..... u must research that.
