<![CDATA[Marriage registration is an important instrument for establishing legal certainty in family relations and protecting the rights of spouses and children. Community understanding of marriage needs to be developed within a framework that integrates religious norms, statutory requirements, and the legal protection of families. This community engagement article describes legal assistance activities intended to strengthen awareness of marriage registration among residents of Tiris District, Probolinggo Regency, in 2025. The activities comprised two principal interventions: marriage law education and individual legal consultations. The approach was educational and consultative, providing community members with legal information and guidance on marriage registration issues. The discussion draws on Indonesia's marriage law framework, particularly Law No. 1 of 1974 on Marriage and its amendments, Government Regulation No. 9 of 1975, and Minister of Religious Affairs Regulation No. 30 of 2024 on Marriage Registration. Since quantitative documentation, the precise village location, participant numbers, and pre- and post-activity evaluation results are not available, the article does not claim a measured increase in legal awareness. Instead, it examines the contribution of legal education and consultation in supporting public understanding of marriage registration procedures, the legal implications of unregistered marriages, and available legal remedies under applicable regulations.]]>
