The purpose of this study is to examine and analyse the level of knowledge among the respondents towards the registration of cross- border marriage among Muslims in Malaysia. The sample consists of 400 respondents from four regions in Malaysia. Questionnaire survey was the main data collection method employed in this study and further supported by semi structured interview. Based on the findings, the respondents are already aware of the opportunity to register the marriage at the court.
