I am planning to marry an American.

After getting married in the U.S., I think we need to go through the procedures to come to Japan, but I don't know what the process is.
I think I can go to the consulate, but I don't know what documents I need to prepare.
I would like to know in bullet points.

Also, for marriage and green card applications, do I only need to bring my family register from Japan?

If you are married to an American or know something about it, please consult me.

The Consulate General of Japan in San Francisco has a detailed list of required documents at the following website. We recommend that you call the Consulate and make an appointment to visit the Consulate after you have all the necessary documents.

Please note that you must use A4/A3 paper when downloading and printing the notification form. ( A4 paper is available on Amazon.com. )
The only documents you need to bring from Japan are two copies of your family register ( one original and one copy ) but when you visit the consulate, you will need to bring your passport and documents showing that you are legally eligible to stay in the US for identification purposes. Also, if you call the Family Registration Department of the Consulate General, they will be able to help you.
