A Certificate of No Marriage Record (CENOMAR) is a certification issued by the National Statistics Office (NSO) indicating that a person has not contracted marriage. The NSO is the central repository of among others, marriage records in the Philippines. It receives copies of marriage certificates from local civil registrars pursuant to the duty of the person solemnizing the marriage to send the duplicate and triplicate copies of the marriage certificate not later than fifteen days after the marriage, to the local civil registrar of the place where the marriage was solemnized.
A CENOMAR is essential in making certain that the civil status of the person to be married is still single and that he or she is unattached. This may be important since any marriage contracted while another one is still subsisting is considered as null and void under Article 35 (4) of the Family Code of the Philippines for being bigamous.
Oftentimes, a CENOMAR may be required by certain parishes. It may also be required if your future spouse is applying for a fiancée visa in your behalf. Moreover, Philippine embassies may also require a CENOMAR for Filipino nationals who wish to get married in a foreign country or in the Philippine Embassy within the foreign country.
You can request your CENOMAR, along with birth, marriage, and even death certificates by dialing NSO Helpline Plus' 737-1111 hotline.
