What do you need to get married in Puerto Rico and especially on the island of Vieques?Getting married in Puerto Rico is slightly different than it is in the US:
You must be at least 14 (girls) or 16 (boys) years old. If you are under 21, you need the consent of a parent.
You must provide blood test results, that are not older than 10 days. Vieques has two places that perform the tests. If you bring the results from a lab in the U.S., make sure they are signed by a doctor (the more official they look - the better).
With these test results you get your health certificates. They can be obtained from the Demographics Office at the hospital. You will need a $20 tax stamp, available at the Colecturía, across from the Ferretería in Isabel II. While buying tax stamps, get a $5 one as well - you will need it for the minister's paperwork.
Have you been married before? - Make sure to bring either a death certificate or divorce papers!
