I am an ordained Minister of Satan, but I don’t live in the US. Can I legally perform weddings?

Ordination by The Satanic Temple does not automatically grant non-US ministers the authority to legally marry people outside of the US. As there are many different laws across the globe defining who may perform weddings, it is best to look into your local laws to find what other steps you may need to take if you wish to legally perform marriages. Keep in mind that many countries allow the legal requirements for marriage to be fulfilled by a simple civil ceremony or process. Once the legal requirements for solemnizing the marriage are fulfilled, a Minister of Satan is free to perform a Satanic wedding purely for ceremonial purposes.
