The second step is more complicated, but we made it easier for you: Registration. You must register as a wedding officiant with Puerto Rico’s Demographic Registry Office. In the past, this process was very confusing and time consuming, especially for officiants who are not fluent in Spanish.

Luckily, AMM just simplified the minister registration process with a new step-by-step guide, linked below. This new guide walks you through each step on the Demographic Registry Office website, with detailed instructions on how to complete the registration form and helpful English translations for each section.
