Tine Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 My fiancée and I are planning to get married at the city hall. I am from the uk and he is from the Philippines. I got the affirmation of freedom to marry from the embassy and my fiancée got certification of legal capacity to contract marriage (clccm). I was advised that my affirmation and his clccm need to be translated and legalised. So I contacted a translation agency to arrange this for me. They told me that my affirmation was fine but the lady also told me there might be a problem with my fiancées clccm from the embassy as t doesn't contain as much information as mine and might not be enough to get married in thailand. I then went through all the stuff the embassy gave him he also has an affidavit of legal capacity to marry. I researched online and it says the clccm needs to be translated and legalised. But the agent says this isn't enough. Do I really need to get both translated and legalised? Or just the affidavit? Or just the clccm? I am so confused and hope someone can help Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 The affirmations of permit to ,marry vary from embassy to embassy. I am sure the Philippine embassy is aware of what is required. It could be the translator has never seen one from that embassy before. Perhaps you should try another translation service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
