What is an arranged marriage investigation?
An arranged marriage investigation sets your mind at rest before you tie the knot; you need to know that your intended spouse is who they say they are. An investigation of this nature includes delving into their personal, financial, and social history, to help you make an informed decision. At UKPI, we find that pre arranged marriage investigations are often requested by individuals or families who want to ensure that the partner they have chosen is trustworthy and transparent before entering into a legally binding union. This is particularly crucial in cases of arranged marriages, or for high-net-worth individuals who may have more at stake.
How we conduct arranged marriage investigations
Our arranged marriage investigations always start with an initial consultation, so we can get a thorough idea of the partner you’re looking to investigate, and what you require from the checks we carry out.
Throughout our investigation, we ensure the utmost discretion, conducting ourselves in a way that means your partner is none the wiser.
The report we compile at the end of our investigation will furnish you with critical information about your partner. This means that you can verify that the true picture of them marries up with what they’ve told you before you welcome them any further into your life.
What’s included in a arranged marriage background check?
The exact areas we focus on will depend on your specific concerns, but, in general, pre arranged marriage investigations or an arranged marriage background check could include:
Employment and financial background checks
These look into your partner’s current and previous employment, financial status, credit history, and any significant debts or bankruptcies they may not have disclosed.
Relationship history
We can investigate any prior marriages, divorces, or children from other relationships.
Identity verification
This confirms your partner’s real name, age, marital status, and any aliases they might have used in the past.
Criminal record check
Detailed premarital assessments will cover any past criminal records or legal issues, such as arrests, convictions, or ongoing court cases.
Social media and online presence
We review your partner’s social media profiles and other online activities to assess character, lifestyle, and any potentially concerning behaviour.
Arranged marriage investigation
Our arranged marriage investigation service is one of our more commonly requested services and we work in conjunction with our International Agents based in the Far East, Asia, India, Pakistan and Russia. This service can also be tailored to include The UK and many other countries.
Our private detectives will complete a full background check on the potential spouse to verify any details they may have told you or your family. Furthermore, we have agents across the world, which means that every single detail requested, can be thoroughly verified.
Background checks of the person
At the end of our investigation, your private investigator will present you with an extremely detailed report, which will enable you to make an informed decision based on FACT, not just the information they have told you. You can then decide whether to welcome the prospective partner into your family or cancel the marriage. If you wish, you could also conduct background checks of the person in question.

The benefits of a arranged marriage investigation
DISCREET - EFFICIENT - LOW COST
An informed decision
- Instead of heading into a marriage blind, you can gear up for your wedding in possession of all the facts – or call the whole thing off if you need to. Instead of simply relying on what you’re told, you can make your own mind up based on the truth that we’re able to discover on your behalf.
Protection against fraud or deception
- A UKPI pre arranged marriage background check can identify red flags such as hidden criminal records, undisclosed marriages, or large debts. In cases where financial or personal security is at stake, a pre arranged marriage investigation can prevent emotional, physical, or financial harm.
Peace of mind for your family
- Particularly in the case of arranged marriage investigations, our work can reassure your family of a partner’s integrity and suitability. This due diligence offers peace of mind to both parties, and helps get your marriage off to a solid start.
