Legal marriage proceedure

[nong38]

I am expecting to get a divorce with my UK spouse by Spring of 2018, when this has gone through I would like to marry, legally, my Thai partner but what is the procedure for doing this?

I assume I will have to get a paper from the Embassy in Bangkok to confirm divorce in the UK and if this is correct where do we go to arrange and complete legal ceremony?

I assume there is no need for the bus load of Monks or the traditional free  party as per the "village wedding" .

 

Thanks for any help with the running order and "road map"

You have to do a affirmation of permit to marry at the UK embassy. Info on doing it and other info is here. https://www.gov.uk/marriage-abroad/y/thailand/opposite_sex

After getting the affirmation and having it translated you can go to any Amphoe to register your marriage.

Some Amphoes will want a certification of your passport photo page. 

No need for a formal marriage ceremony.

Don't get married that's excellent advice!!
