Hello,
You do not need to register your marriage in a Spanish Civil Registry for you to be able to apply for a residence permit. As long as it is correctly legalized you can use it in Spain.
Marriages celebrated abroad can only be registered in a Spanish civil registry if one of the spouses is Spanish.

Not older than 3 months?
Hey guys,
I'm in a similar situation. My biggest worry is what appears in bold:
------
"certificado literal de matrimonio expedido por el Registro Civil espanol, con una antiguedad no superior a tres meses"
(translation: literal certificate of marriage issued by the Spanish Registro Civil, not older than 3 months)
------
Does this mean that you have to register your marriage no more than 3 months before your residence card appointment? Or if 3 months pass since registering the marriage, can we request them to reissue the certificate of marriage so that it has a more recent date on it?
Thanks for your help,
Jaime
