Non-US citizens must also include that you will not be staying in Puerto Rico for more than what is allowed.

These are available in the Demographic Registry. Birth Certificate: In order to record your official name, please bring a copy of your birth certificate. Other Certificates: If you have been divorced or are a widower, please bring the corresponding certificates. Marriage Certificate: Once the proper document are submitted and revised for compliance by the registrar, the marriage certificate is issued and signed.

Certificate Delivery: For the last and final step, you must deliver the certificate, marriage license and all other attached documents to the Demographic Registry of the municipality where the ceremony took place no more than ten days after the marriage.
