Affirmation

[DrChopper]

I wonder if anyone has experience of this, and could advise any feedback.

Having lived in Thailand for the last 3 years I recently moved to Singapore for work.

We are getting married in August but I am busy between now and then and not likely to get back to bkk on a weekday so last week I came back and got my affirmation ready for the wedding.

The embassy advised that the amphur may reject a document from May for an August wedding. Has anyone done something similar and what happened?

If it is likely to be a problem and I could get back sooner would we have a similar problem trying to marry in June if the affirmation stated an intention to marry in August?

Any input valuably received.

Bump, can anybody help?

I understand that an AFM will expire if not used within a certain time period.

I don't know what this period is, though.

Maybe have your fiancée ask at the ampur where you intend registering the marriage?

Opps! Sorry for the above reply. I lost my Internet connection.

I would suggest the same. Please ask your fiancée to ask Amphur. As each of them works differently.

When I made a register of married last August. I called few Amphur and they give me different information. For example, I call Bangrak and was informed to have 2 witnesses. One of them have to be an interpreter.

Then I call Wattana, the officer said no witness is needed. But when I get there they asked me to get my husband's passport translate!

I pointed it out to them that in an affidavit mentioned about where his passport was issued and ecperatyin date etc.. The explanation was the boss's requested. I had to get it translate but have to go back the next day with an upset husband :-p

So I was the interpreter and the officer were a witness for me.
