Legal Question in Family Law in Virginia
My parents (both US Citizen) have been married for 50+ years in Vietnam with a traditional wedding and without a marriage certificate. Is there any legal issue that will prevent them to apply for a marriage certificate from Virginia? Thanks.

That will be up to the clerk's office of the local circuit court
which issues such certificates--after all of the relevant facts regarding
the traditional Vietnamese marriage have been explained to them.
