The Consent Letter For Marriage is a crucial legal document required when a minor intends to marry in Malta. This document is mandated by Maltese law, specifically under the Marriage Act (Chapter 255) and relevant provisions of the Civil Code. It serves as formal documentation of parental or guardian approval for the marriage, protecting the interests of minors and ensuring compliance with legal requirements. The letter must contain specific information including the full details of all parties involved, clear consent statements, and any conditions attached to the consent. It requires proper notarization and may need additional authentication, especially for international marriages. The document is particularly important in cases involving international couples or when the marriage will take place in a different jurisdiction but requires Maltese legal compliance.
