Uk embassy , affidavit to marry

[killblues]

Hi all,  I plan to marry my tgf in the near future , I was previously married to a Thai although we are now divorced , we were married and divorced in Thailand. I have been looking at the gov.uk website to find info on how to get the “freedom to marry” confirmation from the UK embassy and it states that if you have been married previously you must provide a copy of the “decree absolute” issued in the uk. Obviously I don’t have one of those as I got divorced in Thailand. Can anyone tell me if my Thai divorce certificate (I have a copy in english) will suffice ? 
 

Thankyou.

You "must" provide it only if you have one, or had one, and it tells you how to get a copy if you don't have the original.  It also tells you what to do for non-UK documents.  Your Thai divorce papers will suffice, in Thai.
