Now, can we get back on topic. The OP reckons it is about 95% as well ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't rule out a whopper being thrown in by some now-and-then. A whopper, or even a junior whopper is now known as "False News" and seems to the norm in these days of social media and hysterical reporting.

Yes, anyone can do it - I've done it myself a few times. Just write your name and telephone number on it. Even using shops that are recommended by certain embassies doesn't guarantee the MoFA will accept it. Having a fancy stamp means nothing, apart from fooling some gullible foreigners.

I'm guessing a UK consular official was not required to countersign that document, it's the consular signature which the MFA is confirming on the 'freedom to marry' document, not the translation. If you read the MFA stamp on the 'freedom to marry' document, it says something along the lines 'I confirm this to be the true signature of Blah Blah'.

It was signed by the Pro Consul, whose name also has to be translated correctly.I asked her at the embassy how her name was translated as I knew it might be refused if spelled wrongly. My stamp from the ministry of foreign affairs said nothing of that nature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
