❓ Help & FAQ
How do I check if someone is married?
Go to the marriage check. Type the person's name (and country, district… if you know them) or their national ID number. If they appear as “Married”, they have a verified, active marriage. If nothing appears, there is no active marriage on record.
How do I open my account?
Click “Open account” and follow the 4 short steps: your details, your address, a photo of your national ID card and a password. Then put your right thumb on your phone's fingerprint sensor.
Why only the national ID — not a passport?
If several documents were accepted, one person could open several accounts. One national ID = one person = one account, for life.
My phone has no fingerprint sensor
Use any phone or laptop with a fingerprint or face sensor (Android, iPhone, Windows Hello, Mac Touch ID). You can add several devices under “Security & privacy”.
How do we register our marriage?
Both of you open your own accounts. One of you clicks “Register a marriage” and enters the details and the marriage certificate. The other confirms with their own fingerprint. The registrar checks the documents and then your status becomes public.
We are divorced / my spouse passed away / my spouse is missing
From “My Record” click “Report end” and upload the official document. After the registrar approves it, you may register a new marriage. Your earlier spouse will not appear on your public page.
Can a man register a second marriage?
Only where the law of that country allows it, and only with the fingerprint consent of the existing wife — plus, where required, the official permission (e.g. Arbitration Council in Bangladesh and Pakistan). In countries where it is illegal, the registry blocks it. A woman cannot have two active marriages anywhere.
Can minors be registered?
No. Accounts are only for adults (18+), and the registry refuses any marriage below the legal age of the country — and never below 18.
I found a mistake in my name or address
Use “Request a correction”. The change appears after registrar approval. Your national ID number and gender cannot change.
Someone lied to me that they are single
Check them in the public marriage check, and report it privately. Your identity is never shown to them.
Who can see my documents?
Only the registrar. Documents are encrypted. Police and government officers see the certificate details but never your ID card image or full ID number. You can see which agencies opened your record under “Security & privacy”.
Can I install it like an app?
Yes. On Android open the browser menu → “Install app” / “Add to Home screen”. On iPhone tap Share → “Add to Home Screen”.
