Many people choose to follow in the footsteps of Sir Sean Connery and John Lennon and Yoko Ono and get married on the Rock.

For most people getting married in Gibraltar couldn't be simpler. There are no residency restrictions and in theory you can get married with just 24 hours notice. However, as Gibraltar is very popular as a location for getting married it is wise to plan well in advance.

To get married at Gibraltar's registry office you need to present yourself at the registry at least 24 hours before you wish to get married. You will need your birth certificate, passport and if you've been married before a copy of your divorce decree absolute. The registrar will only accept originals not photocopies. No overnight stay in Gibraltar is required.

For further information you can call the Gibraltar Registry Office on 72289. The Gibraltar Tourist Office produces a booklet with full information on getting married on the Rock. You can contact them at: Duke of Kent House, Cathedral Square, Gibraltar. Tel: 74950. Fax: 74943.
