How to order an Ontario marriage certificate — and autofill the request with my-id.ca
Order an Ontario marriage certificate without re-digging the details
A marriage certificate request is short, but it asks for facts you may need again — both spouses' names, the date and place of the marriage. This guide is an example of storing them once in my-id.ca so the request is quick and accurate.
Official form and source
Order through the official ServiceOntario service and always use the current version — links and requirements can change:
- Service page: Get a copy of an Ontario marriage certificate — ontario.ca
- Form (Central Forms Repository): Request for Marriage Certificate — 007-11078
What this request is about
ServiceOntario issues a marriage certificate from the registered marriage. The request simply has to match that record, so the names and date matter.
Before you start: what to gather
- Both spouses' full names (as at the time of the marriage).
- The date and place of the marriage in Ontario.
- The requester's details and relationship.
Your marriage must be registered first — confirm the current process and fees on ontario.ca.
