What are the alternatives that can be considered for a Marriage Certificate when applying for Entry Clearance.?
Is a Marriage booklet (issued by WAKF board in URDU), wedding invitation and wedding photos sufficient acceptable proof of marriage. I have misplaced my Marriage Certificate.

It contains exactly the same information as found on the Marriage Certificate except that it is in URDU, with signatures of bride,groom, 3 witnesses and the qazi (muslim marriage registrar).

I would suggest that you get another copy of the marriage certificate issued from the local govt. authority. Or check directly with local BHC if a marriage certificate issued by WAKF board is acceptable to them.
