Only the bride or groom can apply for their own certificate. It’s easiest to apply online. You may choose instead to complete and mail in a paper form or apply in person at the Vital Statistics Agency in Winnipeg. Certificates cost $30 each at the time of writing.

Change names

Once you have your marriage certificate apply to change names on your driver’s licence and provincial health care card. No records are linked or automatically updated, so you need to apply directly to each organization where you have an account, identification, record or membership. Banks with large branch networks typically require you to visit in person so your signature can be witnessed. You always need to show your original certificate when changing names in person.
