Japan spouse visa question Australian

Hi All,

My Partner & i are planning on relocating to Japan with a Spouse/Partner visa, im Australian & she is Japanese.

My Partner has mentioned that we need to sign/apply for marriage in both Australia & Japan before we can apply for a spouse visa, but that seems complicated.

Can someone confirm if this needs to occur? to my knowledge cant you just get married in Japan, and register your marriage overseas? instead of needing to be in both countries or even just get married in Japan and ignore your home country marriage status before applying for the visa? thank you!
