Getting married in Thailand-The legal side of it!
So you have decided to “Thai the knot” and have your Wedding Ceremony in Thailand but are worried about the legal side of registering your Thai Marriage. You are wondering whether you should complete the process in Thailand or in your home country, what documents you need to bring with you and also how long it will take? These are some of the most commonly asked questions from couples planning a destination wedding in Thailand.
Creative Events Asia offer an express, stress free legal package that allows you to spend just one day in Bangkok (actually in most cases just a few hours) and giving you more time to enjoy your pre wedding holiday. The process is simple. You just need to visit your Embassy in Bangkok and complete the affidavit to marry and in most cases only your passport is required. We will pick you up from your Bangkok Hotel and take you there and after signing a few documents you can be on your way while we do the rest of the running around preparing the paperwork ready for the official registration of your marriage. Easy!
We find that most couples like to complete the official registration of their marriage in Thailand along with the ceremony as you will be presented with a beautiful marriage certificate like this one here. (It’s all in Thai but we give you a certified English Translation as well) which is a nice memory and adds to the uniqueness of your destination wedding in Thailand. Your legal Thai wedding is recognized around the world.
Having the official registration in Thailand along with the ceremony also means that both dates will be the same. You marriage certificate will show the date that you were legally married which will be the same as your Wedding Ceremony date making it much more special.
