My girlfriend is Mexican, what documents does she need to marry me in Mauritius?
What are the documents that she will need to bring with her if she wants to marry with me in Mauritius? Is the fact that all her documents are in Spanish a problem?

Marriage of a non-citizen to a citizen of Mauritius
The non-citizen should have resided in Mauritius for a continuous period of at least 7 days before publication. The publication of a proposed civil marriage between a non-citizen and a citizen of Mauritius is made only at the Central Civil Status Office in Port Louis. The civil marriage shall take place at the central Civil Status Office after a period of 10 days as from the date of publication. Two witnesses are required to be present at time of the marriage ceremony.
Documents to be produced for non-citizen
-
Passport
-
Birth certificates
-
Divorce documents if applicable.
-
A certificate or certificates issued by the competent authorities or his/her country of residence attesting that he/she is of good character and is not the suspect in relation to any pending criminal proceedings, investigation or process.

so i can get married to her on her first visit in mauritius... but still i have some doubts. the marriage visa, will it be issued in mauritius? and since all her documents are in spanish, where can i get her documents translated into english?
On arrival, the person will need to declare to the immigration that she is here to get married and then they will issue her a marriage visa.

Also, I am not finding any professional certificate Spanish to English Translator for(based on) Mauritius on the Internet. Can't she get her documents translated into English in Mexico?( don't forget to tell her to bring both the original birth certificate and the translated one)
Anyway, I guess she does need to get her documents translated(According to the website below..(it's not a Mauritian Website!)). Source: link2
