Anyone experience of what is accepted by HMRC please?

 

A copy of the certicate the flowery one or the  pages from the Town Hall with the record?

Did you need to have it translated.

Did it have to be endorsed by Thai or UK authorities.

I am reluctant to post the original if there is another way?

Any help welcome..

 

Their application form states

 

"Please send us your marriage or civil partnership certificate, certificate of annulment, certificate of civil partnership dissolution or decree absolute. In Scotland this is called a decree of divorce. It must be the original or a certified copy of the original. We will send it back to you as soon as we can."

Not visa related moved to here.

Thanks for placing it correctly

OP when i applied for my UK pension, they asked for original marriage certificate ( not copy).

No translation required, send the original they said, it will be returned, it was, no problems what so ever.

If you are concerned about sending the original send a certified copy...…….

Easy solution, why don`t you try phoning them and obtain the details straight from the horses mouth.
