<h1>Kerala launches statewide video e-KYC marriage registration on K-SMART, enabling remote Aadhaar/email verification and digital certificates</h1> Kerala's Local Self-Government Department has implemented video e-KYC marriage registration via its K-SMART platform, allowing couples and witnesses to complete identity verification remotely using Aadhaar OTP or email authentication and obtain digitally downloadable marriage certificates without physical presence. Launched in urban local bodies in January and extended statewide to rural areas in April, the system recorded 62,524 of 144,416 registrations online through Sept 22, 2025. The reform reduces administrative burdens and benefits non-resident citizens and those abroad, though officials note continued public awareness is needed to maximize uptake.
