Many newlyweds who had "trans-provincial service" exclaimed, "I'm so lucky to be able to enjoy such a rich marriage registration experience in Shanghai." Happy!”The reporter learned that in May 2023, in order to facilitate people to register marriages in different places, the State Council listed Shanghai and other 21 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) as pilot areas for “inter-provincial universal marriage registration” for mainland residents. . Since the pilot started one year ago, Pudong has handled a total of 4,794 marriage registrations across provinces.

A couple who participated in the themed certificate awarding ceremony told reporters:
“I am from Gansu and my husband is from Anhui. Once the cross-province application is accepted, there is no need to go back to your hometown to get the certificate. The wedding center in our hometown is relatively standard in getting certificates. This time we were able to participate in the Hanfu experience here, as well as poetry confessions and themed certificate presentations.

"We have always heard about Pudong's 'Beginner' series of activities. The staff told us that it would be held on June 1, so we made an appointment very early.
