My girlfriend and I were going to get married back in July 2007 and I got the Affirmation of Freedom to Marry certificate from the UK Embassy and tranlation certified, I then kind of got cold feet and decided to put off the proposed marriage, Now we would like to get married I wonder if I can still use this affirmation or will it be "Out of date"

Can anyone answer this, Do you have to marry within a certain time of the affirmation ?

Thanks

It says that you were free to marry two and a half years ago, not that you are free to marry now.

Get a new one.

I think it will be out off date now so you will have to get a new one.

3 months

your certificate is valid for only 3 months. I had my own experirnce in thailande.

you have to get a new one though.

good luck

I had to get mine done again last week as the first one I got was in Jan 09, we tried to use it in November and they wouldnt marry us.

The woman in the British Embassy said to me that they don't put an expiry date on as it's up to Thai authorities who marry you.

At the same time a guy was in there doing his again, he was told in Chiang Mai it was valid for 3 months yet I was told at the Ampur in Koh Samui 6 months.

My advise would be get married as soon as you get it to avoid any more problems.

You could have married loads of times since 2007 Ha!!

Good Luck

Apply for a new one.
