A special licence and an overseas registration are separate transactions
The Registry lists a special marriage licence for cases including waiver of the 21 days’ notice and certain other circumstances. It separately lists the fee for applying to register an overseas marriage or a marriage solemnised before 15 September 1961. The payment schedule describes the application charges. Source 1
An application summary, a search result and a certificate serve different purposes
An existing application summary can be downloaded free. A digital marriage record search result costs S$35 and a digital duplicate or extract of the marriage certificate costs S$50. The Registry also lists up to two free online display-only searches over 12 months for a Singapore citizen or permanent resident using Singpass. Source 1
Changes to an appointment and a solemnisation are priced separately
The schedule lists no fee for changing a verification and declaration appointment. Changing solemnisation details costs S$25. A correction to a marriage record is a separate S$42 service and verification of a digital record copy or search result is free. Source 1
