CCQ-1991 - Civil Code of Québec

Full text
370. The registrar of civil status may, for a serious reason, grant a dispensation from publication on an application by the intended spouses and the officiant.
However, if the life of one of the intended spouses is endangered and the marriage must be solemnized promptly without it being possible to obtain a dispensation from the registrar, the officiant may grant the dispensation. In such a case, when sending the declaration of marriage to the registrar of civil status, the officiant shall include the dispensation, which must specify the grounds for granting it.
