Übersetzung von "Beitrittserklärung Eheschließung" - translation of
Hallo,
ich suche nach einer Übersetzung in das Englisch für "Beitrittserklärung Eheschließung". Es soll nur der Name dieses Dokumentes sein. Ich würde u.a. nach leo.org "declaration of accession (of) marriage" verwendet. Was denkt ihr dadrüber?

Hello guys,
I am looking for a translation of the german term "Beitrittserklärung Eheschließung". It's naming a document "declaration of accession" for marriage. So should it be named "declaration of accession of marriage"?

Thanks,
Fabian

Answer

I don't think your translation would mean much to a native speaker. I have never even heard anyone use the word 'accession' .
Like many 'jurisdiction-dependent' words - it may not have a direct translation anyway, if it doesn't exist as a thing in the country that uses that language.
Would it make sense to say 'Marriage license application'. That would be clearer. There is also an old word 'Bann' - which is perhaps similar, although (a) I think banns are rarely, if ever used any more, and (b) they were a notification, rather than an application.
