Am I right in thinking Belgium marriage records come under a 75 yr rule. Would 1930s marriage records be available online ? Thank you

Thank you for the info links. Agatha seems only to go up until 1920 so don’t think I will find any details of a marriage in 1930s unless I’m reading it wrong.

Have you checked FamilySearch?

In an ideal world certificates would be automatically available to the public when older than 75 years. But alas, a lot of municipalities aren't up to this task.
If you know where and when a certain marriage took place, you can order it for free.
I quote the website:
Via the registrar of births, marriages and deaths of the municipality where the certificate was drawn up.

I know we’re the marriage took place NIVELLES but not year. The marriage was between Henri George’s Laurent Marie Ghislain Libert (born 1908) and Maria Rachel Anais Philippart (born 1910) Henri Libert died 1942. Taking into account there birth years I’m assuming they married around the 1930s ?
Ps: the only other thing I know they did have a child “Monique” which I assume was born prior Henri’s death.
