Getting married without going to BKK

[bubblegum]

Anyway to do this?

Was told by a friend to visit some store in Phuket town who allergy do this service (Legalize by Min. of Foreign Affairs) but they were closed.

PS.No I'm not paying Sid Sod

We went with our declaration to the Amphur & 20 mins (or so) later the marriage was done, no trip to BKK. Only translation was done via post.

You need to have your declaration of marital status (single or divorced) witnessed by your embassy. So depends if your Phuket Hon Consul can perform this service or whether you have to go BKK embassy.

Need to ask the mrs - but was one of the approved "list"

My consul already supplied me with an declaration and gave me a name of a translator who is on the list. So this is enough? No need for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs?

The translator can arrange things with Foreign Affairs. I also needed something translated and certified, from Thai to English, and had this done by the translation bureau almost next to the entry to Rang Hill, I think they're called Bangkok Translation. They translated and sent to Bangkok for me to get certified.

Yes, that translation office is very good. But I wonder if the new Foreign Office in Phuket can certify ? The place that issues the Thai passports.
