TLDR : Answer Summary

Yes, a single status certificate is required to marry a Thai national in Thailand. This certificate must be obtained from your embassy. If you are divorced, you will also need to provide your divorce certificate, and if your former spouse is deceased, a copy of the death certificate may be necessary. Additionally, you should ensure all documents are translated into Thai and properly notarized.

Yes

go online with your embassy and all the details are there. You need to upload all documents first with the UK embassy then you book an appt online. Including passport notorization the fee is 75 quid. Helped a friend only last week. Then its necessary to swear an affirmation get the documents translated into thai and the rest is easy

That's a new one. Question if you have never married do you still need to prove this? Personally I've not thought about marriage to a Thai in Thailand. Cheers

Yes from your embassy. If divorced you must present your divorce certificate and if your former partner has passed away they probably need a copy of the death certificate.

Yes, you need original documents to take to your Embassy for an Affirmation to Marry which then has to be translated then verified by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
