Pre-marital Investigation by a Private Investigator in France
Making an informed commitment
Marriage is a major commitment, both personal and financial. When the relationship is new, long-distance, or marked by uncertainties, it is reasonable to want to verify the sincerity and true circumstances of your future spouse before taking the plunge. A pre-marital investigation provides factual answers, with the utmost discretion.
Actual marital status, current occupation, lifestyle, and any prior history: these are all details that a person may misrepresent, either by omission or by design. The investigator verifies these details, in accordance with the law, to confirm the consistency of the individual’s account—or to uncover a different reality, sometimes linked to fraudulent intent.
The goal is not mistrust, but peace of mind: getting married with peace of mind, on a clear foundation. We honestly share with you what has been confirmed and what has not, without dramatizing or downplaying anything.
What Our Survey Covers
- Verification of marital status and the absence of any undisclosed commitments;
- Verification of the authenticity of the individual’s professional activity and standard of living;
- Open-source research on career paths and reputation;
- Identification of public records or inconsistencies;
- A dated and well-documented report that is clear and nuanced.
All information is cross-checked and presented with due care. When the relationship was established abroad, we draw on our international network to ensure the reliability of our verifications.
How is the investigation proceeding?
After a confidential, free, and no-obligation consultation, we define your objective and provide a clear quote. Our investigators then conduct the necessary checks—anywhere in France and internationally if needed—with the utmost discretion. You’ll receive a detailed report that clearly distinguishes facts from assumptions. You’ll have a single point of contact throughout the entire assignment.

The Aquila Group is a private detective agency accredited by the CNAPS. Your investigations are conducted by our own investigators, and we operate throughout France—with particularly high demand in the Paris region—thanks to our network of twenty offices across five regions.
Absolute discretion and accuracy guide our work: this is a sensitive subject. The premarital background check is conducted with the same rigor as our character reference checks. To discuss your needs with us, please contact our teams : the initial consultation is free and non-binding.
Check here and abroad
Many relationships today begin long-distance, sometimes with someone met abroad whom you don’t know very well. It is in these situations that background checks are most important, because there are more uncertainties and they are harder to resolve on your own. We therefore draw on our international network to verify the information we’ve gathered.
Marital status, actual occupation, lifestyle, and public record: we verify these details with the same rigor both in France and abroad. When fraudulent intent lies behind a proposed marriage, it is often at this stage that it is revealed, through inconsistencies that cross-checking brings to light.
Getting Married with a Free Spirit
A premarital background check is not an act of mistrust, but a step toward peace of mind. Confirming that your future spouse’s statements match reality allows you to commit with peace of mind; and if there are any red flags, it’s better to know about them sooner rather than later. In any case, you’ll be making an informed decision.
Your inquiry remains strictly confidential: your future spouse is never informed, and you will have a single point of contact throughout the process. We will honestly report to you what has been confirmed and what has not, without exaggerating or downplaying anything.
This combination of absolute discretion and accuracy is exactly what those who entrust us with such matters are looking for.
A topic that requires a delicate approach
Verifying the sincerity of a future spouse is a deeply personal matter, and we are fully aware of that. We approach these cases with sensitivity, without judging your motivations, and keeping in mind that your goal is to enter into a relationship with peace of mind—not to harm anyone.
Confidentiality is absolute: the person concerned is never informed of the process, and your communications with us remain strictly private. We provide you with an honest and nuanced assessment, based on which you alone will make your decision, with full knowledge of the facts.
When a relationship has developed long-distance or in another country, background checks require specialized expertise and a thorough understanding of local contexts. This is where our international network makes a difference, allowing us to confirm on-site details that would be impossible to verify from France. Regardless of the situation, our standards remain the same: we report only what has been verified, present the information with nuance, and maintain absolute confidentiality. You are under no obligation until after our initial consultation—which is free and non-binding—during which we work together to assess the feasibility and scope of the background checks. Our sole objective is to enable you to proceed with peace of mind, fully informed of the situation.
