What is the process for getting married in Thailand for a UK citizen who is divorced?
Hi everyone
Under the more part. I have been with my girl now for 9 years this year and want to get married. I’m divorced and from the uk. We usually do all the paperwork on all my visa and reports when in Thailand. She helps with most of it. So can anyone give me a bullet point explanation of the process please.
Obviously people are going to say don’t do it. But I’m also building our home up in the village so to late on that point.
I also have kids and grandchildren in uk who will come and visit the home and spend holidays there. Also my children and grandchildren are  financially taken care of when I pass on.
Thanks in advance🙏

You will need your actual divorce certificate and you will have to go to the UK Embassy in Bangkok to get your affirmation of marital status.

Go to your local amphur and ask them for a list of what you need.
We did that a few weeks ago. All that I needed to get was a document that says that I'm not married. Had to go the the U.S. Embassy in Bangkok to do that.

Do you want a civil marriage ?
If so need to go british embassy to make an affirmation for marriage i believe its called. This was the longest step for us.
We used a company near British embassy at that time (express translations) to get what we needed translated. Got them to go to MFA as well to get it all certified.
Next steps i forgot
