Can a Sspx marriage be registered under a Non-sspx church??
If a marriage registered under sspx will it conflict with my future Catholic life after marriage?

I would recommend contacting the Bishop. When it comes to the SSPX, what may be the case in one diocese may not be the case in another.

Ditto what Dignum said above. In most cases, the non-SSPX Bishop of your diocese must grant faculties to the SSPX to have the marriage be considered valid. Some will automatically extend this since the recent year of mercy, some will do it upon request, and some will not do it.

SSPX priests do not have faculties to witness marriages. A Catholic who marries before an SSPX priest is in an invalid marriage, unless that SSPX priest has received faculties from the local Ordinary (not SSPX bishop) beforehand.

See the letter from the CDF dated March 27, 2017 for the full requirements.

How, or rather where, does SSPX record its sacraments? I suppose all my sacraments are recorded on my RCC birth certificate, which is in file in my diocesan Parish. If I got an annullment or got ordained, I think that would be added there.

If a baby were baptized in a SSPX chapel, they would have that cert. But what if the child was baptized in the diocese parish, and now wants to marry, or get ordained, in SSPX?

If an RCC parish closes, there is a trail where those parish records go - nearby parish, or chancery. What if sspx chapel closed?

I imagine it works the same way for the SSPX. And it’s not a birth certificate, it’s your Sacramental Record.

Then they’d probably produce that certificate from their diocese, or even their own personal copy. I myself have one for my Sacraments. The SSPX would view the baptism as valid.

That I don’t know the answer to.
