A certificate of no impediment is a standard document that simply says you are free to marry legally.
The document had our names, addresses and nationalities on it along the place the marriage was intended, KL, Malaysia in our case.
A notice of marriage has to be displayed in their office for 30 days before it can be issued.
It is commonly required so get one even if advice suggests it isn't.
Simple and painless process so much easier than messing around if you don't have one and someone asks.

I can post a copy of mine if it's helpful.
