Divorce papers

[ldiablo]

Is the original copy of your divorce papers required to get married in Thailand.

I just received this email from my Consulate/Embassy in Bangkok.

The website they directed me to says it is but I would assume that if your government is supplying you with an affidavit of divorce that that would suffice.

Am I wrong?

While we may proceed in honouring your words with your affidavit as divorced status, the Thai authorities do not. You would require to obtain a legal copy of your divorce document.
