How KnotWise works
across borders

📹
Fully online sessions
Every session is conducted online via Google Meet, Zoom, or WhatsApp. No travel, no in-person requirement — attend from wherever you are in the world.
🕐
Any time zone
We schedule sessions that work for both partners, even if you're in different countries. Evenings, weekends, and early mornings available.
👫
Both partners together or separately
Attend as a couple in a shared video call, or each from your own location. We adapt to whatever works best for you.
🔒
Completely confidential
All sessions are private. No information is shared with family, third parties, or anyone outside the session.
📋
Pre-session assessment
Both partners complete a private assessment before the session. Your counsellor uses this to personalise the guidance — no time wasted on basics.

Common questions

Questions we hear most often

Can we attend the session from two different countries?+
Yes, absolutely. Many of our NRI clients attend from different countries simultaneously. We set up a shared video call that includes both partners wherever they are.
What legal framework applies to our marriage as NRIs?+
This depends on your citizenship, religion, and where you plan to register the marriage. Our legal guidance covers the Hindu Marriage Act, Special Marriage Act, and Foreign Marriage Act — and which applies to your specific situation.
Is the session available in English?+
Yes, all sessions are conducted in English. We can also accommodate Hindi and other languages depending on the counsellor.
How do we pay from abroad?+
Payment is processed via Razorpay which accepts international credit and debit cards. No international bank transfer is required.
Will you help us understand OCI card implications?+
Yes — OCI status, its implications for property ownership, marriage registration, and related documentation are all covered in our NRI legal guidance stream.
Can individual partners attend separately if schedules don't align?+
Yes. Each partner can complete the pre-session assessment independently and, where needed, attend separate sessions that are then synthesised by the counsellor.
