Letters of no impediment are official government documents that indicate that a thorough search has been conducted on your credentials and that no marriage record could be found in your name. Otherwise, people would be able to marry people in different countries without each country knowing about the other marriage!

Officially issued by the South African Department of Home Affairs, certificates of no impediment confirm the marital status of a South African national. Once issued, these certificates are valid for six months. They may be used for legal processes inside and outside of South Africa, including visa and residency applications and marital procedures.
