Hi when we first got the settlement visa, we were married in thailand and received 2 marriage certificates in thai, 1 was translated and submitted with original application.
We're not due to apply for FLR till next Jan, but just wanted to get things in order. Do we need to get the remaining marriage certificate translated for the application?
I've had a look on the forum, 7by7 said; "if her last visa or leave to remain application was as your spouse, which you say it was, then marriage certificates etc. are not required with this one. " the was in regards to FLR/ILR in 2012 is this still relevant do we not require to submit any certificate of marriage for either of the coming applications? does the same rule go with the english requirement for FLR, being the same required for initial entry? We are aware that entry 3 is needed and KOL for the ILR.
Thanks for any help, we used this site when first applying was a great help

It's changed since I wrote that.

From Form FLR(M), Section 12 - Documents

12B Spouses and civil partners
If you are applying for a first extension of stay as a spouse or civil partner, in addition to the relevant documents in sub-section 12A, you must provide the following documents:
Your civil marriage certificate or civil partnership certificate

You should provide the Thai original and a translation containing

  • confirmation from the translator that it is an accurate translation of the original document;
  • the date of the translation;
  • the translator's full name and signature; and
  • the translator's contact details.

The one you used for the initial visa application is fine, even if the translator is in Thailand.

You can use the same evidence of meeting the English requirement that you used for the initial visa; even if the certificate, if any, has expired.

Remember to include photocopies of all documents you want returned.
