Marriage registration agencies in our country are administrative organs of the state and enjoy national statutory holidays and weekends. They do not work on Saturdays and cannot handle marriage registration business. Newcomers can learn about the working hours of the Civil Affairs Bureau in advance and choose to apply for their marriage certificate during their working hours.
Working hours of the Civil Affairs Bureau
1. From Monday to Friday (not working on statutory holidays), generally from 9:00-12:00 in the morning and 1:30-5:00 in the afternoon. Please consult the local civil affairs department for specific times.
2. In some areas, the Civil Affairs Bureau can handle appointment registration on Saturdays.
3. For example, the weekend falls on some special days, such as Qixi, Valentine's Day on February 14, and some local civil affairs bureaus also provide registration services. For specific situations, you can go online or call the local civil affairs bureaus in advance to check their work arrangements.
