A Letter of No Impediment is an official document that is used by South Africans who intend to get married in foreign countries, in most cases, to a citizen of a nation abroad – while residing in that particular country. It is a certificate that gets issued by the South African Department of Home Affairs, confirming the current marital status of an individual; and it is valid for six months from the issuing date.
