In India only one state that gives the certificate is Punjab State.

But that state will give certificate to the people belonging to that state alone.

No other authority whether local administration or other authorities are empowered in law to issue such a certificate to the Indian citizen.

The laws of some countries require that, before a foreigner may marry within their jurisdiction, he/she must produce a certificate issued by the relevant authority of the country of which he/she is a national, stating that the authority does not know of any impediment to the marriage. However ministry of external affairs state that this certificate should be obtained from court.

Nomenclature of the certificate issued in India is generally called as 'No objection certificate' or bachelorhood certificate.

Since the power to declare any legal rights is vested in the competent courts in India, the applicant is advised to contact such concerned court authorities at the place of normal residence.

1. There is no provision in India to issue a no impediment certificate. Neither any authority in India nor Indian Missions/posts abroad can issue Bachelorhood Certificate or Certificate of No Impediment in respect of any Indian National.

2. The only remedy is to file a civil suit for declaration of being unmarried in the competent civil court. The civil court alone is competent to issue such a declaration. The entire process is likely to take 6 months in the least.

There is nothing called ' No impediment' certificate available in India.

It appears it is required in the foreign state where only it will be available.

You may ask whether any affidaivt dedicating that he is fit and unmarried to get you married will do or not.

Else I regret it can not be amide available from India.

No Impediment Certificate is certificate of marital status which some countries require at the time of registration of a marriage. To avoid bigamy a status certificate of 'single ' is required. In India, a certificate is not issued by any authority but courts of competent jurisdiction can pass a decree of declaration regarding status of the applicant. You have to file a petition in the Court where your husband generally resided in India. It may take sometime before a decree is passed on the petition. There is no shortcut procedure in this regard.

1. The said 'Certificate of No Impediment' is not required in India for marriage for which there is no specific body to use the same,

2. Your hubby can make an affidavit before the 1st class Judicial Magistrate affirming that he has no impediment.
